Itch backtracks on shadowbans, but only for a select few games, they are also looking into accepting other payment processors, but the big issue here is that creators aren’t being paid for the games. PC gamers are baffled at the fact that some massive censorship campaign is happening against them, I am baffled too at the speed that all the events are happening at too, we don’t even have some time to breath that another slap in the face comes after another, a flurry of attacks from extremists. Thankfully, we are winning, we can fight fire with fire, and we at Infinite Start recommend you to do so too.
Itch backtracks on shadowbans, partially
The big issue here is the fact that many creators are unable to get money from doing what they were doing, Itch.io is literally holding payments from them until the issue is solved. It seems that the issue won’t be solved soon, because some extremist scourge decided to rekindle the fire of puritanism. Livelihoods of people are ruined by doing this, but they don’t care, in fact, these monsters relish on the fact that they are causing pain to so called “minorities” and other groups that they dislike.
We as gamers can unite together to bring hell to the companies who are oppression our right to buy, our right to own, and our right to express ourselves. These coordinated attacks can be countered by our coordination, people should call Visa and Master Card, force them to answer in some shape or form, we shall not stop until we get the answer we want and things get fixed to what they were before. Payment processors should just do that, process payments, its a very simple job and they don’t have the right to exercise their subjective morality upon us. Itch.io should also pay the developers in some way.
