Steam doesn't have to, you fuckwits. Collectively shouting your beliefs across the world and forcing others to bend to your religion isn't worth a response. Go fuck yourselves.

Not just religious nuttery, but TERF religious nuttery: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melinda_Tankard_Reist
Because of course they're fucking TERFs.
How to defeat collective shout? A collective even louder shout.
Collective Shout, the anti-p*rnography pressure group
Did they seriously censor their own article, on their own website
Conservatives are always triggered by porn references
Collective Shit lol
Yeah, hate it, but that sort of censorship is to bypass filters. Am old, used to use pr0n.
I do like me some good prawns from time to time.
Why talk to them at all? They don’t give a shit, “Jesus” “told them” to do what they’re doing
Because talking is legal.
You shouldn't bombard those people with emails or phone calls or order pizza without toppings/cheese. Don't harass them and make their life miserable, don't ruin something they enjoy. Don't use OSINT to find more about them and certainly don't ask "where is your god now?" when they break down crying. Don't clog their systems with trashdata. Just don't raid them.
Talk with them in a civilized manner. Look at human history and you will see that every conflict can be settled if you are just willing to use words and nothing else.
You cannot reason with religious extremists. They believe they have the one true view of the world and nothing will convince them otherwise. They believe they are fulfilling gods wishes.
I'm not proposing to reason with them.
🤣 Funny people replying to you completely missing the point.......
People, read again and turn on your brain.
Nah, make their lives hell within the confines of the law. They aren't going to listen so it's a way better use of your time to fuck with them. Make them feel uncomfortable in the world because they do not belong.
Whoosh
Look at human history and you will see that every conflict can be settled if you are just willing to use words and nothing else.
An admirable sentiment, but I feel like you and I read very different history books.
Or the two of you have very different ideas in how to read text as sarcasm or honest opinions.
Poe's law at work
Eh, the quoted portion of the comment is too on the nose to be read as honest imo.
That was 100% a "whoosh" on my part, had just rolled out of bed and brain wasn't firing on all cylinders yet.
You dropped this

Just register their contact information to spam services, like any sane person would do.
Why do payment processors have to be concerned with age ratings at all?
Because THEY decided that THEIR opinions are better than everyone else's, so YOU have to listen to THEM, willingly or not.
Something something free speech and all that jazz.
Because nobody will ban that legally, and people paying for adult stuff themselves naturally have made a decision.
So these people (the Russian word is pidor) are trying to sneak a block someplace else.
They probably are worried about litigation, and shareholder profits. It's always about shareholder profits.
Nah, neither take works for 'em. Litigation? Being neutral bypasses all threats of bias. Profits? Porn is the only reason the internet took off as a profitable venture.
I'd bet some top dogs bowed to a little pressure for fear of bad publicity. That's how these tiny religious groups threaten. That's all the juice they got. And who's going to stand up and say, "Nah. Fuck yourself. We want our porn."
Well, I guess we all did stand up! (Do I still need to make calls, or is this thing done?)
Backass preachers out in Oklahoma getting high and stoned on their own aroma.
Imagine sending 4k emails to a company of only a few hundred employees
Imagine 4k people sending 4k emails to 6 employees

They, understandably, don't list their emails but I doubt they're impossible to find
Is it doxxing to post contact information for a public company? If so mods I'm sorry please don't ban me

Definitely a Christian organisation they have a fax machine. Keeping up with the Joneses I see.
Now to waste their toner. I'm sending them my very important white text on a black background complaint, sent 4,000 times
Send them the most fucked up guro hentai pages one can find!
Thank you, I might use it for social engineering reasons.
Love that!

Cens+rship g+ne t++ f+cking f+r.
That article is shit to read. What's the point in censoring words?
Likely search engine ranking. The internet is getting worse every fucking day.
Surfing porn on Google vs. Bing is an eye opening experience.
Google: "Fuck it all up. We don't want to be seen as a porn engine."
Microsoft: "How do we beat Google in search?!"
"Make porn pics and images easy?"
Worked!
But then you get weird shit. One day searching "tiny titties" gets you no NSFW results, the next it's flooded with 9yo Russian kids. "Flat chested"? Meh, one day it's "flats", the shoes, the next, 9yo Russian kids again. Fuck me. I like little titties, OK?! I just want to see them on women. Preferably "asian amateur lesbian cosplay tiny titty white lingerie face sitting lesdom wedding dress" kinda women. Is that too much to ask?! I was told this was the future. :(
Do search engines not want articles about porn or do they just don't like the word? Because substituting one letter doesn't do shit if you want to obscure what you're talking about.
Because it's bad words, sniff.
What are they going to do next? Force high class escorts to stop doing their job?
Hell yeah. Now let’s the rest of us ignore those taints as well
