Give me a fucking break.
So its games with 'mature content'....so is the Dark Souls and GTA series being removed?
It would be nice if companies accepted regional payment options, for example, Canada has Interac e-transfer to easily transfer funds from one bank account to another, local businesses in Canada have offered this as an option for payment but anything international it’s either PayPal or CC.
Interac E-transfer is so simple to use and definitely beats having to use third-party apps like Venmo and CashApp.
Most do, Steam accepts a fair few regional ones like the Dutch iDEAL. But it barely matters if a lot of people pay with Visa/MasterCard instead.
Do you have to somehow enable them? There is a common standard for paying directly from your online bank here in Finland, but Steam doesn't seem to support it.
Might depend on the market. The Finnish market is not even a third of the Dutch market, so perhaps it's just a business decision whether they support it or not. They do support iDEAL without needing to enable anything.
It makes no sense for any country to give American companies money for the pleasure of processing their own internal payments.
change.org is worthless call the CC companies directly
Imagine if you could do 2 separate 5-minute tasks to pressure giant corporations.
People are doing that too, there was just an article posted a bit ago talking about that.
Causing multi hour waits with the goal of hurting them by delaying actual customers getting help

I am an actual customer and these are real complaints.
I believe jamming up the new customer lines does more damage. It destroys their quotas and blocks new revenue.
Why not both?
Change.org is a for profit company with no government attachment what so ever. Signing a pettition there is only handing dipshit capitalists your personal info to sell.
Because change.org will keep relentlessly spamming you and selling your info for years and years and years regardless of opt-outs.
ACLU is legit enough for me to believe this petition is worth signing.

It's just a change.org petition though, in the end it doesn't have much power to it. Even if it gets to 1mil. signatures, Mastercard and Visa could just go "Alright, use another payment processor then"
And if they say that, then we will indeed switch where we're able. Simple as
....to who exactly?
Someone who isn't Visa or MasterCard, like Discover or American Express. I myself will be getting a Discover card if this doesn't resolve soon, and have said as much to Visa.
Think I saw another user suggest amex? Idk what it is, but maybe look into that?
Pretty sure that's American Express.
Remember, that's not enough. Call these demon companies yourself and your representative.
Call the companies, yourself and your representative?
I couldn't get through to any of them 😟
100% a change.org petition makes news which is useful but won't otherwise do anything. What you need to do to back that up is cost Visa/Mastercard money, and the way to do that is to call them and tell their ethics teams that what they're doing is deeply wrong.
Seems like this petition is getting faster traction.
Someone write down “Stop Killing Porn Games” for the future.
This is not about porn. Period. Its about censorship and free speech. SMH.
Don't let PirateSoftware find out about this one
