there are extremists and pornographers all over other sites that use stripe.

the "private company" argument doesn't apply super well when there are only a handful of options and they all have the same political ideology.

Does Stripe know that one of their flagship clients listed on their site (Pinterest) hosts NSFW content?

Literally from Pinterest's Community Guidelines:

"We always remove images of explicit sexual activity or fetishes, and nude or partially nude people in sexually suggestive poses."

Does GabTV have anything like this in their terms of service? Answer: No. They signed up with Stripe, agreed to the ToS, and now are generating moral outrage when Stripe comes knocking.

Then Pinterest is doing an absolute shit job of enforcing their own rules, I suppose.

Yeah I’m sure there is no porn whatsoever on Pinterest now right ? You’re naive if you believe that.
