The problem with leaving it in the hands of corporations...
Is that some are run by pieces of shit with very warped ideasWhat they allow might be worse than what they ban

Did that ever work anyway? For the last few years i only find porn games via duckduckgo and "You might also be interested in".
edit: right, respective tags list no porn games anymore.

Which could cause them to no longer be indexed by search engines depending on other settings. So you'd need to find direct links from other websites.

But (not-meta)search engines crawl websites.

a reminder that collective karens bragged about doing all of this based on just 1000 phone calls.
Nobody wants to pick up the phone

Exactly. They "crawl" category/tag lists, etc. and follow links. And if there are no links to those pages, they wont be indexed.
(Depending on some settings. For all I know they've set up "hidden redirects" for popular crawlers to pages that show them)

Meanwhile known pedo and rapist Donald Trump is President of USA. Make it make sense.
This wasn't America this time. Blame the Aussies.

Ahh, yes
A collective against the objectification of women, which somehow has no Problem with the current system in america, pornography itself, and dosent advocate for anything except banning Video games.
I would imagine they're more concerned with Australia than America, since that's where they live.

Lol Lemmy can’t go one comment thread without mentioning the U.S.

Actually insane to say that Collective Shout is blameless. Go look at the vile shit their members are spewing. Not only are they demonstrably culpable for this, they're also engaging in hate speech and disinformation and targeted harassment.
The payment situation is also to blame.

Nobody said that. Except you, I guess.

Steam, Visa, Mastercard are not U.S companies?

TDS is a real thing. every time I see someone in denial of this, a little part of me dies. there are people who spend all day every day scanning 7 different social media websites for threads that they can connect to the president of the united states. they want every single website on earth to be turned into "ihaterepublicans.com"

I say that we must take a revenge... I am very angry for the freedom of expression and respect to individual rights. It is simply a nazi organization disguised in Christian clothes.
Each sect of the insane Yahweh-cult has a way bigger body count than the Nazis ever accomplished.

They are, but it's an aussie doing the lobbying to get them to do this

but to be fair the us can't go one administration without couping and bullying everyone else.

They didn't say blameless, but they did heavily imply Collective Shout isn't a problem and that people are worried about the wrong thing.
I think Noxy's interpretation and response that there's multiple things to blame was pretty reasonable. -

Oh I'm sure they have lots of problems with the system in America. They're going after anything they think they've even got a chance of affecting. Their website also says they're trying to ban porn on X.

Except Collective Shout is Australian (which is unsurprising, considering that AUS is also a hotbed of hate groups).
Feel free to provide the Australian equivalent of the quote if there is one. The country can be substituted for any not-yet-Fascist-controlled country and still apply, in my opinion.
Different countries might have different symbolism instead of a flag and cross, but the sentiment is that Fascism disguises itself and evolves to fit in wherever it goes. -
