MasterCard probably makes too much money from Steam to permanently ban them.

Maybe, but would you risk it? Also, there's a payment processor in between. Like Valve, the payment processor needs to guess what Mastercard finds objectionable.

Honestly, yes. If they're having to guess what is or isn't allowed, it's only a matter of time until it actually happens.

And sure, having a Visa influences my stance on what Valve should do! Haha
