NSFW content possible banned on Game Portals.

[Kargano01]

Hello, i know that game Portals like itch.io or Patreon are not realy liked here. But i know that some of you like nsfw content.

 

 

A group that call themselves Collective Shout has taken great pride and a victory lap on social media claiming that they forced the gaming platforms like patreon, itch.io and steam to act and ban nsfw content. They did it in a clever way, not talking to itch and steam and the other platforms directly, but instead going to the payment processors like Visa, Mastercard and Paypal. And since these processors have never been fans of adult content, this Collective Shout initiative seems like a welcomed excuse to go after the creators of this content, forcing the platforms to act. Itch.io has already put out a statement.

If you could take 5 minutes of your precious time to take action and make your voice heard:

 

DON'T go after Collective Shout and their members, even if you're angry. That is what they want. 

After their victory lab, Collective Shout went into hiding, but not without sharing their method of basically making 1000 phone calls to Visa, Mastercard and Paypal to force them to take action. .

 

Use this petition which has gained some traction:

I personally think its worth having a specific thread about itch.io, I'm surprised the site itself hasn't made an announcement since this is quickly growing to kind of just threaten everyone.
