And it is not the legitimate regulators who impose such spartan rules, but Mastercard . Given such draconian rules, online platforms selling adult content could give up using Mastercard. But giving up would probably be too costly, considering that the financial giant handles almost a third (30%) of credit card payments outside China. And Visa, which swallows up 60% of transactions, also has a strong position in the adult content market.
The world of finance acts as a de facto iran number data (but not de jure ) regulator in the darkest recesses of the network of networks and in those grey areas where the law is as unclear as it is obsolete.
There are many grey areas on the web of webs and that is where the financial giants impose their law.
Legislation that is anachronistic in nature and not adapted to the new Internet era allows financial giants such as Mastercard to end up leading the way when it comes to regulation.
That Mastercard and company have ended up in the shoes of strict regulators is a circumstance that would have roots in September 11, 2001. At that time, when the United States was a country plagued by chaos, tragedy and fragility, the world of finance became an important political instrument. The North American country was forced to introduce strict rules to curb money laundering and also to impose more sanctions. In this new regulatory context, financial institutions had to block payments from people on a list of no less than 1,604 pages.
The US government turned to financial institutions for help . And where the law prevailed, at least money prevailed.
