We're not in theoretical "they could come after sfw queer content LATER" territory anymore. It is being used to come after sfw queer content NOW.

Spread this around, send the article to any and every news outlet/content creator you can think of. The alarms need to be sounded

And KEEP CALLING

if your use of paypal is primarily as a customer or otherwise are NOT somebody that makes a living off adult work, you are the best people to pressure paypal! there is a risk of retaliation for adult creators, but if you don't have that risk, please call!

MAKE YOUR CALLS!!!
WHY? On July 2025, Steam, a popular storefront to purchase games on PC, and itch.io, a storefront that sells games, comics, tools, resources and much more, have recently delisted several NSFW games, after the group Collective Shout published an open letter to payment processors such as Visa, MasterCard, PayPal, and more. As a result of this letter, payment processors have strongarmed Valve and itch.io into enforcing restrictive new TOS policies on what kind of content their platforms can host and sell. Visa, Mastercard, Stripe and Paypal have been censoring free speech and legal business on the internet for TOO LONG. Their most recent targets are Steam and Itch.io, but they have also been pressuring websites like Pixiv, Patreon, Fansly, Onlyfans and MORE for years, applying draconian standards for what kind of adult/pornographic content platiorms and their users can host and sell. If we as consumers and creators want to regain ground on this issue, we have to make our voice heard. HOW? BOMBARD THEM WITH PHONE CALLS Collective Shout, the organization that lobbied to have Steam and Itch.io change their TOS, did so with only around 1000 phone calls. Visa and MC have backed down from pressuring Onlyians to remove adult content entirely due to public backlash. Clogging their phone lines for an extended perlou, over a mont at the absolute least, will almost gudrantee that these compantes will at least have to pay attention to the backlash. this list is not exhaustive. but some contact points for the 4 targets are: 1. VISA: (US + Can): +1 [8001-847-2911 US option selection for operator: 1-1-2 or 1-1-3 2. MASTERCARD: (US): +1 (8001-307-7309 US option selection for operator: 1-1-2-2-2-1 Phone (outside US): 1-636-722-7111 3.

Israel soldiers have taken over the Handala and in the video from the Handala live you hear the soldiers yelling and one pushes the camera down so nobody will watch what they are doing. #gaza #israelwarcrimes #handala

visa and mastercard deciding what games are allowed to be sold is an apocalyptic level threat to the games industry. phone calls are the highest impact way to help.

this is an all hands on deck situation. the enemy got results with 1000 phone calls.

we can beat them

I know we're upset about itch, but they're not the only ones

Payment processors harassed companies bc of a 1,000 email hate campaign

But we can EASILY top 1,000!

I prewrote an email + got the contact info - you just have to send!

Folks call your Senators now!! A ban on any state laws on GenAi for 10 YEARS is gonna do unthinkable harm!

For those of you wondering what to say here are two posts you can use to build your own script (use alt script to cut and paste)

Need to find your representatives? Here you go:
5calls.org
User Zachary Berger recommends the following script: "I'm a constituent in the congressperson's district. Al regulation is life or death for a lot of the Congressperson's constituents in creative industries, please make sure the section in the budget reconciliation bill banning Al regulation doesn't pass." User Karla Ortiz gives information on the bill so you can point your senators where to look: Call your representatives! Tell them just yesterday (R) Congressman Guthrie added a new text to the Budget Reconciliation bill to BAN GenAi regulation in the states for 10 years! Hell, point them to the specific section: TITLE IV-ENERGY AND COMMERCE (Part II: Al section, (c) moratorium)

"Age verification" laws are actually "upload your ID or get your face scanned to access every website, ending anonymity and associating your identity with everything you do online" laws and if more people understood that they would not be down for this authoritarian nonsense

The government is about to give OpenAI the ability to legally steal if we do not flood this page in the next 12 hours.

OpenAI will have immunity from all lawsuits regarding copyright infringement. All other AI companies will follow.
