    And you’re missing the point where payment processors aren’t the police. They are not the ones to make any decisions like that, yet they do.

    Point in case: hoe many payment processors allow legal porn?

    It’s easy to jump onto child pornography, but it’s completely missing the point.

      I’m not missing the point where payment processor aren’t police. But they still need to follow legislation in the region they operate.

      First of, it’s not “Point in case”, it’s “Case in point”.

      Second, I can honestly say. I have no idea how many payment processors does or does not authorize payments regarding legal porn for various websites. Feel free to link an article or source that investigates that particular topic.

      If you look at the post. They claim “Possibly related to PayPal because people in certain regions have not been able to use it to pay on Steam.”

      If this was PayPal taking a stand on a corporate level against porn games on steam. Why would only certain regions be affected instead of everyone?

      The obvious answer, is that it’s only certain regions, because of their legislation. If PayPal wish to do business in their region. They have to follow their laws for those customers.
