That’s it guys. The fun police has won.
Credit card processors are owned by Islamic businesses that are opposed to western ideals surrounding sex and nudity.

This forced wokism will come back to haunt us.

God I wish I was a massive dumb ass, life must be bliss to be
The real show here is the OP who apparently had something to do with the decision(?) telling the goon squad off in the comments and getting -100 downvotes
I think that’s the person that everyone was raging about in the thread I linked here last week, who was reporting “nudifying” LoRAs for an img2img model.
There was a guy on reddit the other day getting mad that gpt wouldn’t let him do a super sexy ballerina cappuccina thing. he was like “I pay $200 for this, I should be able to make her boobs and ass bigger!”
Modern times.
I don’t understand why these companies do this, isn’t like, 90% of their paid content just people making porn anyway? I would’ve thought they would just wring their hands and talk about what a tragedy it is that people are misusing their service and they are looking into it, while the money rolls in.
These “services” are already massively, obscenely in debt, so them chasing off a huge portion, the majority even, of their paying customer base is just absurd. The only business model I can see working for them is “slot machine, but for porn” so them trying to distance themselves from that just seems like they’ll be going bankrupt.
It’s mostly payment processor shit. Civitai had trouble with that and is currently only accepting crypto payments until their contract with a different payment processor starts or something, and they still allow NSFW. They also banned and purged all celebrity deepfake LoRAs and instituted some weird filters on the model browser that may or may not hide LoRAs related to things like “hypnosis” when the end user’s search filters are allowing explicit content.
I don’t know what the deal with TensorArt actually is: they’re probably scared of payment processor issues and are just shutting down everything until they get a lawyer to tell them what they can and can’t do or something. People were expecting them not to follow US law or care what US credit card companies wanted because they’re based in China, but they may be realizing that even if they’re only operating for an overseas market they can still be charged for violating Chinese law or something like that.
That makes sense. It’s always interesting to watch how different flavours of capital both need each other and yet despise each other, “capitalist efficiency” in action.
