It seems to me as this is a compelling use case for regulation that prevents discrimination by payment processors.
I just looked up a few porn sites and they don't provide Mastercard/Visa payment but they just take the national payment processor of the few (EU) countries I checked.

- seszett 1y agoCB in France, Bancontact in Belgium, iDEAL in the Netherlands. Those are all nationwide networks that allow online payments (online in this case, but they also handle most non-cash payments offline) inside these countries. I think most countries have such a network (under various legal forms, for example CB is a consortium but Bancontact is for-profit, while I think Interac in Canada is a non-profit, etc) but the US doesn't have an equivalent as far as I know.
