Not sure why the discussion is “they’re censoring AI!” rather than “they’re censoring adult material!”. Payment processors banning adult content is nothing new.

Tldr of article posted on twitter:
Guy makes ai sex companion of his girlfriend, posts it online, is making decent money, gets some negative press, stripe realizes his business and (obviously) cuts ties. Finally the developer is on a personal crusade as his companion is now apparently a movement or something. Switches to a 3rd party Romanian payment processor.
Downvoted because this isn’t a blog posting sub.
