nope

2018-10-04 01:50:16 UTC  

What is it with payment processors being ninnies about everything, even perfectly legal things?

2018-10-04 01:50:22 UTC  

@Beemann Make the Plague Great Again

2018-10-04 01:50:23 UTC  

they say they want them to mark it as NSFW (which they do)

2018-10-04 01:50:39 UTC  

Is it because people disown transactions or claim they're fraudulent more often when they are in that category?

2018-10-04 01:50:56 UTC  

doubt it

2018-10-04 01:50:58 UTC  

i.e. when people buy pornography they are more likely to pretend they didn't intend to, when pressed on it.

2018-10-04 01:51:04 UTC  

lol

2018-10-04 01:51:19 UTC  

oh I wish it was a joke

2018-10-04 01:51:39 UTC  

With firearms it seems interesting, I hope it's not _purely_ political.

2018-10-04 01:51:51 UTC  

They tend to not process payments for firearms or ammunition.

2018-10-04 01:52:24 UTC  

For what it's worth, I don't think Visa has done anything untoward in this sense.

2018-10-04 01:52:30 UTC  

MasterCard has gotten their tendrils into shit

2018-10-04 01:52:39 UTC  

but Visa always seems to stay out of it.

2018-10-04 01:52:43 UTC  

so wait

2018-10-04 01:52:48 UTC

2018-10-04 01:53:54 UTC

2018-10-04 01:53:59 UTC  

The bank is seperate from Mastercard.

2018-10-04 01:54:06 UTC

2018-10-04 01:54:09 UTC

2018-10-04 01:54:12 UTC  

Operation Chokepoint it seems was not as hapless as it looked.

2018-10-04 01:54:19 UTC  

You can't use the card atleast.

2018-10-04 01:54:31 UTC  

🤔

2018-10-04 01:54:34 UTC  

If it's Bank of America or Citi, you're also screwed.

2018-10-04 01:54:45 UTC

2018-10-04 01:55:09 UTC  

Couldn't you just pay in cash?

2018-10-04 01:55:09 UTC  

Yeah, I can use my Canadian or U.S. TD Visas to buy firearms just fine, IIRC

2018-10-04 01:55:28 UTC

2018-10-04 01:55:46 UTC

2018-10-04 01:56:17 UTC

2018-10-04 01:56:35 UTC  

thats fucked up that payment processors are demanding other companies conform to thier standards

2018-10-04 01:57:23 UTC  

thats like black people going to starbucks , not buying anything and demanding to use the restroom or free coffee

2018-10-04 01:57:24 UTC  

>commiefornia
Escape before it's too late my dude

2018-10-04 01:57:36 UTC
