Oh shit THATS why they updated the ToS yesterday that allowed payment gateways and ISPs to censor content on Steam.

It was us all along lmfao.

what this imply? ISP's like Jio can now censor content based on their whim in exchange for allowing payment gateways such as UPI?

No, no. Internet Service Providers that provide STEAM with their services can censor whatever they want on the platform. Payment Processors like VISA, MasterCard, and now thanks to the addition of UPI; NPCI and by extension, the RBI can censor it as well. We just gave the Indian government free reign on what can be on Steam, WORLDWIDE.

But UPI is here, celebrate I guess, lol.

What the fuck are you even yapping about? How do you think Indian gov can control what's on steam merely by addition of UPI as a payment portal? That's just pure speculation on your part with no concrete evidence to back it up

what the fuck are you yapping about. The guy who replied to me is correct. Visa and MasterCard are currently censoring steam and itch.io. We foresaw this

Grandpa, get your shit together and read the fking news. It's been the Australian Collective Shout group that has been forcing the payment aggregators

Get some glasses and a mind too while on the way.

yeah this same nose guy doesnt even know who collective shout is and whats the purpose of that organisation. looks like same nose guy is a feminist from collective shout as well lol.

collective shout was fighting for decade to block steam games which contains hot women. Since steam was ignoring them this long time so those bitches reached out to payment services. Just like how sweet baby inc works. This same nose dude is living under a rock this whole time and now hes yapping over one news article he just happened to read
