Official statement on Steam being pressured to remove offensive content

[rusty_shackleford]

We can't have stupid laws like these because too many people are stupid.

suddenly every app is able to detect pedophiles the moment the government forces them to, weird

How did you manage to fail so quickly and completely in a single sentence? It's actually impressive.
You need to go compete online with Fuentes and Shapirio and such with talent potential like that.

I'm not even going to bother checking if it's real, but the reason people keep seeing apps detecting them as potentially underage is because they engage with content meant for eight year olds. I hope that helps!

Where would the NVIDIA app get its information from? Does it monitor what games you play or is it something like if you're using your google account to log into NVIDIA then it just gets all its info from that?

Just assume all proprietary applications are spying on you

I generally do.

Wow, rpghq keeps getting better and better...

So true!

read some libtard stuff on this and them blaming 'conservatives' for it is wild, they're in a complete delusion right now that they're the biggest censors

The founder of Collective Shout is a pro-life anti-lgbt Christian ergo "conservative" even though everything she says is in the language of a secular liberal.

changed his avatar from Bardin to foid elf, starts attacking Acrux

not a good look

He attacked me!

....problematic

Oh are we using that word now?

[DecadeRiptide]

Uh, but can you prove they aren't lying? I won't believe you unless you post video evidence of your redeeming all 13 porn games and playing them.

Ok here is my library after redeeming:

Huniepop

It is ok for a visual novel. Has good voice acting. It's basically Bejeweled Blitz but with anime porn.

Sapphire Safari

Sapphire Safari was better than expected honestly.
You need to avoid being caught by tentacle plants and furry monsters while you take pictures of them and explore the map.
The animations are a bit weird, and the actual 3D model of the main character doesn't really make much sense.
Sad I couldn't explore the volcano and discover the monsters lurking there. Maybe the dev is still working on that part of the map?

Agony

Agony isn't that bad either. More of a survival horror than a porn game. Graphics are good.

I can confirm they are real.
Couldn't get videos because YouTube won't let me put these up, and I have no hard drive space left from all these porn
Have not got round to the other 10 yet. I'll make sure to notify you when I do so you know they're all real and safe when you decide to download them for yourself

I kinda like it. Remind me HOMM3.
Also, "no elves" sounds like a lie if you look at this picture.

Multiple colored elves, beastmen and minorities. I really don't see any originality and the "no elves" is a massive lie

[Finarfin]

Lol, what a bunch of ****. No amount of coping makes these five elves "speshul non-elves" That black and grey ****** is literally a Vivec copy but zesty.

Trump is (indirectly) on the side of the porn peddlers https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential ... americans/

Sec. 4. Removing Reputation Risk and Politicized or Unlawful Debanking. (a) Within 180 days of the date of this order, each appropriate Federal banking regulator shall, to the greatest extent permitted by law, remove the use of reputation risk or equivalent concepts that could result in politicized or unlawful debanking, as well as any other considerations that could be used to engage in such debanking, from their guidance documents, manuals, and other materials (other than existing regulations or other materials requiring notice-and-comment rulemaking) used to regulate or examine financial institutions over which they have jurisdiction.

Sure would be nice if this were an actual law and not something that can be rescinded by a future Dem though.

Dooblain your video card came with an additional accessory. Please insert nvidia-robo-penis into your usb 3.0 drive and then fellate it for 5 minutes.
This is to confirm you are sober and over the age of 18.

Thin, pointy-eared, with an uptight, superior attitude...I don't care what you're naming them, that's a motherfucking elf.

Observe:

Elf.

Alright, so what did I miss? Did any other websites get shafted by VISA while I was gone, and did someone finally do something about it?

Redditards are still torn on whether to support the bill to prevent payment processor meddling; it does everything they want it to do, but it was also written by a icky Republican, so their small brains are short-circuiting. Honestly, pocking these idiots with a stick is kind of fun now. I think Trump 2.0 might have permanently broken something in these people, either it's fatigue settling in or the grim realization that their shrieking doesn't actually do anything.

President Trump signed an executive order forcing payment processors to process payments that give them the 'ick', which was Visa's casus belli for declaring the war last month.

"Financial institutions have engaged in unacceptable practices to restrict law-abiding individuals’ and businesses’ access to financial services on the basis of political or religious beliefs or lawful business activities. . . Banking decisions must instead be made on the basis of individualized, objective, and risk-based analyses. . . The term 'politicized or unlawful debanking' refers to an act by a bank, savings association, credit union, or other financial services provider. . .Within 180 days of the date of this order, each appropriate Federal banking regulator shall, to the greatest extent permitted by law, remove the use of reputation risk or equivalent concepts that could result in politicized or unlawful debanking" - GUARANTEEING FAIR BANKING FOR ALL AMERICANS (8/7/2025)

Why thank you President Trump, is it Christmas already? I do love that he still remembers the time Obummer tried this ******** with gun sellers.

Anyone taking bets if any of the idiots are going to thank him for doing this?

So it seems PayPal have withdrawn from Steam regardless of their capitulation?

[Breathe]

So it seems PayPal have withdrawn from Steam regardless of their capitulation?

Top down tyranny. This is how the cbdc/stable coins is going to control us, too. They're going to build them up with "private" companies to get around restrictions the government would have to adhere to.

[Vaako]

So it seems PayPal have withdrawn from Steam regardless of their capitulation?

For most third world currencies yes. Should certainly boost piracy the next few years if that doesnt get sorted out fast.

[SoLong]

So it seems PayPal have withdrawn from Steam regardless of their capitulation?

Yes and no. Paypal is still available on Steam, but only for six currencies (EUR, CAD, GBP, JPY, AUD, and USD).

For once, this is neither Steam nor Paypal's fault. Paypal's aquiring bank (meaning the bank Paypal uses to process their payment, to avoid being a bank itself) for currencies other than the above terminates payments to Steam. Why exactly they do this no-one has been able to say.

So, for example, if you pay in Euro you can still use Paypal on Steam. If you're trying to pay in Chinese Yen, you're **** out of luck. The problem in this case isn't the games being paid for, it's the currency.

Like I said previously, it might be that the VISA ***** are using the bank in question as a smoke-screen by putting pressure on the bank, which in turn puts pressure on Paypal, which in turn pressures Steam. But we currently have no evidence of that. The fact that the British pound is still accepted seems to contradict the censorship claim for now.

Don't take this as a defense of VISA & Co though, they absolutely are guilty of ******* with Steam to censor games, just not in this particular instance.
