    Transaction companies should not play police, in my opinion

    In fact no company should play being police

    This is why we have the digital market act

    How are transaction offering companies not included there? Who gives them the right to choose what people consume?

    Way do much centralised power

    Basically a dictatorship

    Fuck that

      I mean, they have no problems offering transaction services to obvious scams like “find sex in your region” and other scammy find relationship websites.

      This will never go away. Payment processors make life easy for most consumers, people like them. And as long as we have them, they hold all the power around how money can be used. And they will always be limited by governments and local laws.

      If you don’t like the situation, use cash. If that’s too inconvenient Bitcoin is essentially your only other option.

        They have the power because states gave it to them. States can very easily take it back. But they won’t because they’re corrupted assholes.
