the main users of adult payment services are very exploitative businesses that are not owned by the performers, operate in a dirty and unregulated market and are directly responsible for a large part of human trafficking in recent years
And you know that how? Because it's the mantra some interested parties repeat?
Those very exploitative business have a ton of money and can always find ways to launder money. The only ones hurted by these bans are the actual independent sex workers, who cannot afford to find alternatives because <gasp> they are independent so they don't have the resources.
Stop trying to save the world. All your good will will only hurt the small ones.
- cornholio 4y agoThat's exactly the point, denying them access to a payment system the consumers can easily access, hence, limiting the profit motive and the resulting massive human damage. By your very limited logic, denying drug traffickers access to the banking system hurts poor coca farmers in Bolivia. Well yes, it does, any policy choice involves compromises.
- zxspectrum1982 4y agoStop repeating the mantra. Prostitution has existed for millennia. It's not going to change. You can help to democratize it (i. e. independent sex workers) or you can help the big bad guys (by denying independent sex workers access to a payment system they can easily access). Using your very limited non-logic, you have decided you want to help the big guys. Congratulations.
