    This is lame. Mastercard telling people what not to by is outrageous but not the first time they’ve done this.

          That one was due to pornhub supposedly not doing any content management to make sure illegal content (child/bestiality/ revenge porn) wasn’t available. Once pornhub put in better security measures, the providers authorized transactions again.

          That’s little different from the providers revoking my businesses ability to accept credit cards if I’m found to not follow the standards required of me for SOX compliance

            of course pornhub does content management. You’re not gonna find a more strictly managed porn site anywhere. They instituted unprecedented regulation, most of their content was wiped and they manually verify studios to be able to upload.

            and no, they did not authorize transactions again.

              They weren’t doing much content management before all that though.

              And my bad, I thought they had, I haven’t checked because I’ve never been in their market to begin with

            you’re not wrong, but also certain legal, consensual fetish porn is still blocked by the major payment providers. it’s the reason OF/JFF have some arbitrary restrictions
