The group responsible is “Collective Shout”, the same org has targeted Steam before.

There are calls on social media now to contact Mastercard, Visa and co. and file complaints.

    I guess they can’t push back like steam can, they’re much smaller. But if they could, would they?

      Neither can Steam. Visa and Mastercard make up 90% of all online purchases outside China. If they cut off Steam then Steam is effectively dead.

        Steam has no power. They are beholden to a very particular monopoly that can get away with anything it wants and is currently being manipulated by unethical evangelical fascists.
