Kickstarter bans adult content.
Who saw this one coming?
Edit: the video was ad restricted by youtube, so I've removed the monetization, making this work also Unpaid because you can't even talk about sex openly anymore

@JenJen
YOU WOULDN'T distribute prohibited anatomies
"Who saw this one coming?"
On Kickstarter, no-one can see you coming ...
(Sorry, I'll get my coat.)
@JenJen
I'm hearing from the other side of the sofa today that some campaigns have had their monies collected from backers but finding their disbursements cancelled by Stripe. I'm assuming you managed to collect fully from the last one?
You know what's kinda sad about all of this censorship?
I've had a good question in the youtube comments about what processors I use if I can't use Stripe - and I don't feel safe enough to respond to it, in case I get into trouble somehow and lose those processors too.
So I can't actually openly help people in a similar boat to myself

@JenJen It's fucked up, but yep, you don't know who can be a plant either.

@Illuminatus Exactly. I have to keep a lot of my opinions and "tea" behind a paywall, or just not share at all
@JenJen We really need European alternatives to <gestures vaguely at all of US digital infrastructure>.
@JenJen
Well said. All of it and, sadly, I believe that you're right about the likelihood that this encroachment is going to get worse.
America is the land of the free? Don't make me fucking laugh.
@JenJen Watched it! Very frustrating scenario. But we will keep trucking on.
Also, I asked in the youtube comments but thought it worth repeating here: any good resources for how to actually set up rarebit? Specifically on an already established site? My current one page per post is going to be untenable long term, I think.

@blenderdumbass i think it should have auto uploaded to my makertube, but Im too high to check atm
@JenJen I just watched this video. Instant follow. As a consumer of adult content, I am done with this shit. We need new methods of payment processing that doesn't rely on American-based tech. And I say that as an American.

Oh, look! It's due to puritanical payment processors! They have far too much power. In a real country with actual free speech, they wouldn't be allowed to dictate terms like they do. It's on purpose. It's their goal. It's religiously motivated. It should be illegal.

Agreed. The problem is that real countries with actual free speech don't have their own payment processors, but is also depending on visa, master card, and stripe. :-(
