Tbh, its only a matter of time before the entire organization gets doxxed and the internet does what it does.

I look forward to eating popcorn when it happens.

I just saw a comment yesterday with all their names and roles in the org. I think there were email addresses too.

Anyone have a guess as to why these companies don't just cut off the country being used to spearhead these attempts? Like, half the popular games are blocked already. And setting this precedent will likely lead to further fuckery in the future. Is Australlia really that profitable that it's worth the current and future hassle?

Someone should check this groups computer ls and closets because they are projecting and those fuckers should have no impact on what us Americans or any other country wants to buy. This needs to be reversed Asap.

The best part is that for the article Valve supplied a picture of Blue Scout standing speechless in front of pornographic pictures of his mom, as the punch line of one of the best "your mom" jokes of all time.

There's a few groups like this in Australia, unfortunately.

Australia didn't even have an R18+ rating for games until 2013 (R18+ is similar to AO or NC-17 in the USA). Before then, all games with a higher rating than MA15+ were illegal in Australia. Many games had an Australia-specific version with blood/gore reduced, some things edited out, etc. to reduce the rating. The original release of GTA4 in Australia was heavily censored.

Oml, trying to ban Eminem and Snoop Dogg from Australia? Really? Fuck did Eminem actually do in the last 15 years? Snoop, never really listened to him, can't think of anything he did (in relation to women). They managed to stop Tyler, the Creator from touring in 2015? They're doing the dumbest shit. Going after sexualization of women isn't going to help any actual problems. Pathetic.

Judging from their description ("pro-life feminists") I bet they're using objectification as a cover to push their regressive ideals. When it comes to rap there's a disproportionate amount of hate towards it from these people, could be as simple as that.
