A new rule was added to Steam's publishing documentation. https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/gettingstarted/onboarding >15. Content that may violate the rules and standards set forth by Steam’s payment processors and related card networks and banks, or internet network providers. In particular, certain kinds of adult only content. There is actually a bill in Congress, with significant momentum (43 out of 100 senators co-sponsored. 50 needed to pass, 60 needed to get the vote to happen.), that would stop this shit. It has that momentum mostly because it's a general anti-debanking bill and after seeing Trump's bank drop him despite how fiduciaryily stupid it was Congress realizes they're going to be hit with it eventually. https://www.congress.gov/bill/119th-congress/senate-bill/401 https://www.congress.gov/bill/119th-congress/house-bill/987 If you're an American you can call your legislative official and demand either (as applicable) >they add their name to the co-sponsor >it come to a vote and that it be amended to strengthen the prohibitions on "payment card networks" as they're weaker than the other sections (only banning "political or reputational risk considerations", which could easily be construed either way on porn or guns, a weakness at odds with the introduction.). Also tell them to oppose the following legislation >S.1748 - Kids Online Safety Act https://www.congress.gov/bill/119th-congress/senate-bill/1748/text Basically the American version of the UK Online Safety Act and would force you to show ID to access adult content. >S.1671 - Interstate Obscenity Definition Act https://www.congress.gov/bill/119th-congress/senate-bill/1671 Removes First Amendment protection from porn by labeling it as "obscene" across the whole country. To find your legislators https://www.house.gov/representatives/find-your-representative For calling, you want to have your name (ideally just give the NATO Phonetic alphabet spelling after it without prompting*.), zip code, return phone number, and the bill number (S401 for Senate or HR987 for House). I've been given conflicting claims on if the local office or DC office should be called, but as far as I can tell for just "support this bill" the best is whichever one has a human pick up the phone (an actual meeting is local office). *Realizing I can just say the phonetic spelling unprompted after being asked for my name on any phone call (not just political calls) and not have to wait to be asked to spell it then awkwardly go back and forth for them to get my name correct makes it something I genuinely wish I had learned to do decades earlier. ... Why the hell should payment processors be setting moral standards? Governments need to get these two under fucking control, money middle men should not have this kind of power.
