Absolutely nothing prevents all that Steams, eBays and so on just accept BTC/XMR as a payment, and accept it to their own address without even any intermediate and shitty Coinbase and alike "processors". It could be done by them in a few minutes, literally, and there will be an option "pay with BTC/XMR". This also allows effectively circumvent all that stupid sanctions and other shit and reopen sanctioned markets for them.
Since none of them done that, all their whining about "censorship" by "payment systems" is a pure hypocrisy.
If they really wanted to severely fuck all that "payment systems" cabal, they could do that years ago. Technology is stable and works without problems for more than decade. Those companies who really don't give a fuck to modern financial totalitarism, use it without any problems for years.
Of course it makes sense - it would give them autonomy and it would cut costs.
If BTC was a top down technology and a stepping stone to CBDC as some people claim they would totally use the opportunity to push it on the gamers who are tech oriented to begin with, and yet they don't? It's almost as if they don't want to replace the centralized legacy system for a decentralized one. I wonder what the conspiratard explanation is for this?
B (bit) + C (central)...bit/bheid (to split) implies the splitting of whole into partial, hence into each bit at the center of entirety. BC implies the status quo of being hence BEFORE CHRIST (being forwarded as anointed one).
De-central implies division of center (ones perception) within circumference (all perceivable). System (standing together) implies mass consensus to a suggestion by few.
Decentralization implies natural analysis; any system implies artificial synthesis.
Gamer implies gambler aka betting choice on chance aka "shoving" towards outcome...a jew utilizes "when push comes to shove" as a lure to tempt gentile gamers to push forwards, while shoving each other.
You have to ask all of the Japanese companies that banned foreigners from their site because of the payment processors that as well.
I rarely visit Japanese companies sites, not much Japanese things around me, mostly I'm looking for IC datasheets, and didn't notice any censorship, as with Western companies. Toshiba, Mitsubishi and other IC manufacturers sites didn't ban Russian visitors and their access to datasheets, appnotes and catalogues like Western ones.
And that's while Russia (as USSR legatee) still is in the official state of war with Japan since WWII.
It has nothing to do with automobiles.
It's the independent NSFW and horror game industry and the anime industry they are targeting.
In their beliefs, those are nothing but idols and demons who teach fornication and adultery.
What they don't care is most people can moderate themselves no problem and the Greeks and Romans are not degenerate maniacs.
There is absolutely no any difference in censorship due to state sanctions and due to wishes of some payment system bosses. There is exactly same people ("people") and intentions behind both, state and payment systems.
Notice that legatee (law of will) implies natural law separating each ones free will of choice from one another, which Soviet Union contradicts into a suvetu (assembly) of units.
