Payment processors are pressuring content platforms to censor unsavory content their users sell. Patreon has imposed very strict guidelines on what kind of porn is allowed on their site, pixiv fanbox removed paypal support, and gumroad banned all nsfw from their platform. Dlsite is mostly porn, and given that nips are a bunch of degenerates, banning all sensitive topics would bankrupt them, so they opted to change the name of popular tags to something more ambiguous, for example rape now is nonconsensual, bestiality is "animal friendly", etc. in hopes that the language barrier will be enough to deter weimerican companies from cracking down even more. Regardless of the morality of people jerking off to weird shit, which is mostly drawings in this case, the fact that big companies have so much power over what content can be monetized on the internet should be concerning.
What is this?
