Editing Talk:Collective Shout

==Relevancy to CRW==

I would argue that the article is relevant here due to the activist group having a history of attempting to or preemptively blocking customers' ability to otherwise engage in lawful transactions because CS finds something offensive. The ability to obtain something ought to be taken into consideration, even though it might not be nearly as important to the focus of this wiki as having said thing and then having it altered in an anti-consumer manner. — [[User:Sojourna|Sojourna]] ([[User talk:Sojourna|talk]]) 05:38, 4 September 2025 (UTC)

:Agreed, their tantrums towards payment processors should be evidence enough to say that their actions are harming consumers. Their actions have been responsible for developers on itch.io and Steam to not get paid in general [[User:JamesTDG|JamesTDG]] ([[User talk:JamesTDG|talk]]) 07:06, 4 September 2025 (UTC)
::I will agree with Sojourna and James as well. I will give @[[User:DzLamme|DzLamme]] one week to respond to this talk page for his side. If no response is given, the deletion notice will be removed. [[User:Mr Pollo|Mr Pollo]] ([[User talk:Mr Pollo|talk]]) 00:51, 5 September 2025 (UTC)
:::I have read that some NSFW games got de-indexed due to lobbying and pressure on payment processors. I'm not for censorship, in general. I don't agree with many of the stances the group takes, however their intentions were framed as though they are just an anti-consumer group. The article gave the following reason for the groups actions in 2014: 
:::''the video game encouraged players to "murder women for entertainment."''
:::The article came across hostile, like calling their lobbying, ''tantrums'', while leaving out any responsibility Itch has towards its customers and indie developers.
:::I was unable to find a history of anti-consumer rights, I am not in Australia and have not done a deep dive on them so I may be ignorant of some things. [[User:DzLamme|DzLD]] ([[User talk:DzLamme|talk]]) 06:50, 5 September 2025 (UTC)
