STOP CENSORSHIP

Collective Shout employs weak and ideologically driven arguments to push for widespread censorship of media. Rather than engaging in open dialogue or nuanced critique, they advocate for the removal of any content that doesn't align with their narrow moral framework. What they label as "harmful" or "bad" is often based on subjective and inconsistent standards, not on evidence of actual harm. This approach risks creating a cultural environment where only content that aligns with their personal values is considered acceptable. Their efforts often involve pressuring payment processors and service providers to withdraw support from creators or platforms that host material they disapprove of. This tactic bypasses democratic debate and threatens freedom of expression, as it gives a single group disproportionate power to dictate what others can see, make, or support financially. In effect, their goal isn't just to protect people from genuinely harmful content — it's to redefine what is acceptable based on their own ideology and to suppress anything outside of it.

This censorship opens doors to block anything any organisation. Now what they did on steam is acceptable but how they did it is not. What they did with itch.io is so much worse. The path they laid for anyone to now block violence, blood, lgbt+, historic events and anything inbetween is massive. This should not be possible and should be a violation of free speech.

Collective Nonsense. Collective Shout deserves every negative review it gets. Just a horrible joke what they stand for and I have yet to read one good thing about them. I hope they get banned soon enough.

Banning Bad Games is okay, but what not ok is is forcefully censoring/deindexing any type of adult game from an adult part of the website by making the banks threatening the site to cut all ties and stop providing the paymentprocess

These are the people who are trying to govern our legal purchases. They are testing the "waters" by bullying steam, itch and potentially others to get art/media removed from the platform they don't own. mainly NSFW But can easily do other games like RDR2, Postal, etc. They don't play video games yet they are trying to touch/control the market. They were alleged to support "cuties" which is pretty ironic. They are targeting video games because they view it as an easy target. A class action lawsuit is likely coming.
