Why is Mastercard processing money for this movie that contains a rape scene?
- Freak_NL 1y agoIt's not targetted by pressure groups at the moment. MasterCard isn't acting out of its own moral convictions here, so don't expect these rules to be enforced wherever they might apply.
- baobabKoodaa 1y agoOh please. As if Mastercard is beholden to some grass roots movement from Australia.
- dpoloncsak 1y ago...So their quote "we require merchants to have appropriate controls to ensure Mastercard cards cannot be used for unlawful purchases, including illegal adult content." is just a lie?
- nemomarx 1y agoI mean yes, of course they're lying? the article quotes the actual rule here, which is "don't do anything that might make us look bad".
- wongarsu 1y agoStill waiting for Game of Thrones to be removed from all streaming services for gratuitous sexual depictions and on-screen depictions of rape
- philistine 1y agoDon't forget the beheading! Mastercard specifically mentions beheadings. I guess Ned Stark shouldn't have complained to every lord of Westeros that King's Landing didn't accept American Express.
- mango7283 1y agoBecause it's a critically acclaimed movie that will draw defenders if it's banned now. If the activists went all in right away they'll lose and they know it Same deal with GTA and GOT
