Dozens of adult content creators have signed an open letter to Patreon challenging restrictions it has placed on the creation of pornography.The crowdfunding service updated its rules last week to explicitly ban the sale of pornographic content and provision of sexual services.It said at the time that it was clarifying an existing policy.But the firm has been accused of betraying some of its members who say their activity is not illegal.”We know people who would be homeless if it wasn’t for making porn on Patreon – and it’s not a small number,” the letter states.”Your fuzzy position on ’adult content’ versus ’porn’ gives you the freedom to discriminate at will.”And it makes content creators live in fear of that discrimination, itself leading to self-censorship of important viewpoints.”
