I don't see any reason why Liberapay couldn't deploy a recurring donation system like Patreon's.

So what? If Liberapay was based in the US, they could choose to continue hosting you if they wanted to. In the EU, they don't have that option.

Many countries in the EU have blasphemy laws and the European Court of Human Rights says they are okay:

If someone criticised Jesus Christ in their podcast (for example), they would be putting Liberapay at risk. I don't believe Liberapay would allow that, so they'd just ban the user. That's what makes Liberapay a risky option.
