It's not a great precedent, that's for sure.

    The rabbit hole actually goes deeper.

    Apparently the people doing this type of pressuring on the credit card companies are anti-furries, TERFs, and other right-wing anti-porn think tanks, with a possible goal to erase all queer or pornographic content off the internet.

      And that’s why I fight for this sort of content despite personally finding it disgusting.

      how does one “pressure” credit card companies to that extent?

      also just because a group claims responsibility doesn’t mean they actually had anything to do with it.

        Shareholders can vote on the executive positions so they pressure the CEO to do what they want.
