Far too many businesses and companies take payment with no sig for that to have any meaning. VISA/MC's beef is purely with porn. They spout all the BS about high risk but it's not even that clear cut - it's high risk AND porn they have the real problem with.
If Visa just wanted to stop processing for porn, they would have by now. Visa's #1 problem with porn is because it's high risk and is full of fraud. I also believe that they're not comfortable processing for sites with child porn, beastiality, and scat, but that doesn't really surprise me too much.

I don't think Visa cares all that much about general porn. I don't think they're sitting there on their moral high horses plotting ways to bring down the whole porn industry which it has been processing for decades.
