I know, Nichegamer isn't a good site but this is the only one speaking about it at the moment. And this isn't just porn but anything adult too.

Well that kinda sucks.
In simplicity, utility. Through utility, simplicity.
They indirectly state in their announcement that you can bypass this ban by setting your region to Japan (or some other country). This is separate from your language, so it won't affect browsing at all. Might still be a problem if you want to pay for anything though.

If you read this signature, then that meant that I had control of what you read for 5 SECONDS!!
I wonder if PixivFE will be affected by this

For the US part it's more likely due to several US states requiring sites with adult content to verify the age of users.

Pixiv censors everything anyway, it's not even really porn.

Pretty much.
Why does the internet not want people to have porn anymore.

They're being run by a bunch of puritanical asshats.

Other sites have also fallen victim to this. Gumroad is a recent example.

Hopefully more sites go that route rather than bow down to demands from shitty businesses that don't actually give two flying fucks about the content.
What I want to know is why there are no viable alternate payment methods that don't care about what you spend your money on. There are plenty of other credit card companies out there. They can't ALL be like this, can they?

Fraud. Porn is paid for with stolen card info a lot as well as people who make fraudulent claims that their card was stolen after using it legitimately. They just don't like dealing with it. Has nothing to do with cartoon tiddies.

That may be based on what you've already seen. It selects suggestions for content based on similarity to stuff you've already looked at. So, if you've seen lots of scantily-clad video game characters, it's likely to throw more at you.

I do suspect the lion's share of content is NSFW, though.
I'm not here for friends. I'm here for the truth to the best of my knowledge of it, even if it's not what people want to hear.
But but but, its to protect the children!!!!! (Lmao yea right- stop socially engineering/playing biopolitics)

Didn't Tumblr recently re-allow naughty bits to be shown in their site?

They did but the damage is done.

Reading the announcement directly on pixiv and it seems to be mostly loli/shota that is going to be blocked.

If this is the case then nothing of value is lost.

Yes.

If only the anti-woke crowd spent a third of the time talking about this instead of complaining Females Models face. Congress , Local Government, and Anti-porn games are passing laws to ban porn in Pixiv, Steam, Deviantart, Tumblr, Onlyfan,etc.

To be competely fair to Tumblr, it was Apple and a few other credit card companies that killed Tumblr.

Cryptocurrency was suppose to save us from this scenario, but it's instead used for scams

Reading the nichegamer article, it says they've been pressured by payment processors to do this, so yeah, it is the credit card companies.

The "lewd" part of 4 sounds like an 18+ ban, since that's awfully broad.

What the fucking fuck is "the left" trying to ban for everyone because their beliefs tell them it's wrong? Point to actual fucking people with the ability to do something, not some random Instagram post or ResetEra thread.

People keep acting like this is an issue with right or left leaving views but it's more that adult content comes with risk of high levels of chargebacks.
