right, that reasoning sounds the same as what I hear about stop killing games.

"I'm scared that polititian is going to exploit me, so I'm going to keep being exploited by a company instead."

you know, in europe, we have influence over who is in politics and who represents us.

Hi, so my colleague has told me that europe wants to make digital money.

now, from the sound of it, it's just like having cash, but you can use it in online shops too.

here is an article about it:

The thing that I don't get *wink wonk* is why would visa and mastercard, and other payment processors be scared of this. why would they make oh sooo many claims that it will hurt the banks.

I wonder how this could limit their power in any way :))))))))
(heavy sarcasm, this could literally prevent situations like the last 48 hours from happening)

I saw this post on it, and maybe they're right. maybe we all should call visa/mastercard and ask about this.

edit: found a post that has corporate office contacts

I'll keep talking about it to whoever I can then.

yeah, youre right. I just don't know what else to do. it feels like this is something I can't change in any other way.

I was going to write a long post on this, but basicallly:

Since itchio and steam have decided to bend over for a religious extemist group.

And decided to censor things like "mentioning of periods" and silencing peoples expressions of their own traumatic past.

I will most likely stop using both platforms all together.

what's yalls take on this?
