Title: Japan's YouTube alternative Niconico struggling after payment processors force adult content ban

I have zero issues walking into a store buying games or prepaid cards with any payment of my choosing.

What changed? Convenience? Lol

Another reason why these payment processors needs to be regulated, and given massive fine for refusing payment to legal payments.

They're basically utilities companies now, shame on Visa and Mastercard, I know Amex isn't far off but I'll boycott these 2 duopolies whenever I can pay by other means.
