Stripe is currently unable to support sexually explicit content due to restrictions placed on them by their banking partners

How deep does this rabbit hole go? Will the banks eventually claim they're fine with porn but are being restricted by the illuminati or something?

It's not deep that Stripe uses whatever card network your card is on. Visa and Mastercard don't actually do payment processing themselves, they have processors that do it for them. It's those that they've told to put pressure on itch and Steam.

Stripe is just another 3rd party between Visa/mastercard and itch.
