"Forced to ban adult content by payment processors"

If you go through and click all the links and hunt down the source, the final source underlying it all is a comic author who says, without quoting anything, or any proof, that that's the reason why. Just a random guy saying that Stripe made them ban it, without any evidence.

I'm the King of England. There, I guess I "am" the King of England, because all it takes is for a random person to make a statement and it becomes true.

The details sure are light, but it tracks with how banks and processors work. There's lots of indirect language and polite pressure involved, and famously, opaqueness behind decisions.

Consider this excellent article on debanking by an author who works at Stripe: https://www.bitsaboutmoney.com/archive/debanking-and-debunki...

The machine grinds on regardless if we agree with it or not.
