It appears that MasterCard is getting squeemish about violent sex, gag, suffocation, rape, etc.. and content that is BDSM is getting caught up in the "bad" category.

Here is the case where private sector can enforce what the government cannot.

While you could have a first amendment argument to the "fantasy" or "simulated" aspect of the sexual depictions, those don't hold up with the plastic kingpins.

No need to worry about 2257 or obscenity, MC and VISA can do it by simply requiring the acquring Banks and the IPSP's to conform to their (new) rules.


Fight the female body inspectors!
