WHY?
On July 2025, Steam, a popular storefront to purchase games on PC, and itch.io, a storefront that sells
games, comics, tools, resources and much more, have recently delisted several NSFW games, after the
group Collective Shout published an open letter to payment processors such as Visa, MasterCard, PayPal,
and more. As a result of this letter, payment processors have strongarmed Valve and itch.io into enforcing
restrictive new TOS policies on what kind of content their platforms can host and sell.
Visa, Mastercard, Stripe and Paypal have been censoring free speech and legal business on the internet for TOO LONG. Their most recent targets are Steam and Itch.io, but they have also been pressuring websites like Pixiv, Patreon, Fansly, Onlyfans and MORE for years, applying draconian standards for what kind of adult/pornographic content platiorms and their users can host and sell.
If we as consumers and creators want to regain ground on this issue, we have to make our voice heard.
HOW?
BOMBARD THEM WITH PHONE CALLS
Collective Shout, the organization that lobbied to have Steam and Itch.io change their TOS, did so with only around 1000 phone calls. Visa and MC have backed down from pressuring Onlyians to remove adult content entirely due to public backlash. Clogging their phone lines for an extended perlou, over a mont at the absolute least, will almost gudrantee that these compantes will at least have to pay attention to the backlash. this list is not exhaustive. but some contact points for the 4 targets are:
1. VISA:
(US + Can): +1 [8001-847-2911
US option selection for operator: 1-1-2 or 1-1-3
2. MASTERCARD:

US option selection for operator: 1-1-2-2-2-1
Phone (outside US): 1-636-722-7111
3. STRIPE:

(France): +33 805-11-19-67
Stripe: complaints@stripe.com
4. PAYPAL:

IWW "Sabo Kitty" logo with words, "An injury to one, is an injury to all."
This is a scary time, but also one where people across divisions could in theory link up and offer real solidarity and support to each other.
We have a choice - allow different groups of people to be targeted, or show up and stand with everyone under attack.

It's 2025.
Time is a construct of capitalism.
If we must use years to measure time, go into these next 12 months being radically, unapologetically you.
Love fiercely. Arm your community with resources.
Be brave.

Three bright stars with diffraction spikes shine near the center-right of the image, illuminating nearby clouds that glow in pale blue. The clouds darken at the edges of the image, and are dotted with smaller stars, some also with diffraction spikes.
