I'm Worried About Payment Processors (and how that could affect Bandcamp too?)

There's been some ongoing developments with payment processors like Mastercard, Visa, Paypal and Stripe among others overstepping their boundaries for the purposes of censorship of "adult" content, and I don't think anyone is completely safe. Also Bandcamp are being weird lately hinting at plans to change the way they interact with these companies, which I'm also a little concerned about.
(This is NOT a call to stop using Bandcamp, please keep supporting artists who depend on it! but this was worrying enough for me to want to go completely off format and make a video on it.)
