ANTI-CENSORSHIP CHEAT SHEET

WHY?
Visa, Mastercard, Stripe & Paypal have been censoring free speech & legal business online for TOO LONG. Most recent targets are Steam & Itch.io, but they have also pressured websites like Pixiv, Patreon, Fansly, Onlyfans & MORE for years, applying draconian standards for what kind of adult/pornographic content their users can host & sell.
If we as consumers & creators want to regain ground on this issue, we have to make our voice heard.

HOW?
BOMBARD WITH PHONE CALLS
Collective Shout, the org that lobbied to have Steam & Itch.io change their TOS, did so with only around 1000 phone calls. Visa & MC have backed down from pressuring Onlyfans to remove adult content entirely due to public backlash. Clogging phone lines for an extended period, over a month at least, will almost guarantee that these companies will have to pay attention to the backlash.

this list is not exhaustive, but some contact points for the 4 targets are:

VISA:
(US + Can): +1 800-847-2911
US selection for operator: 1-1-2 or 1-1-3

MASTERCARD:
(US): +1 800-307-7309
US selection for operator: 1-1-2-2-2-1
(Outside US): 1-636-722-7111

STRIPE:
(HQ): +1 888 963-8955
(France): +33 805-11-19-67
Email: complaints@stripe.com

PAYPAL:
(US): +1 888 221-1161
(outside US): 1-402-935-2050
Customer Service: +1 877-569-1116

TRY TO HIT ALL 4 TARGETS PER DAY
This is only going to have an effect if as many people possible call EVERY DAY for as long as possible.

THIS IS A MARATHON, NOT A RACE.
If you can, it is also a good idea to try to spread the word to organizations & groups that can either actively combat these huge companies legally, or can spread news, in a manner supportive of this movement, more effectively than your average person

examples of organizations:
ACLU
Canadian Civil Liberties Association local legislators & government representatives

examples of spreading the news:
local newspapers
special interest publications
video game streamers
