Back in 2019 we covered the censorship that was hurting the sex toy industry. One of the offenders was Kickstarter, which later changed its ways and became more welcoming.
But it seems like the company has regressed. “Sexual pleasure” is now a banned concept for rewards, though Kickstarter says pleasure might be fine as long as the product is not designed for “insertion or penetration.” I want to know what’s going on over at Kickstarter HQ but I fear nobody is having fun.

Why would Kickstarter be liable for someone else project.
That’s like trying to sue UberEats for delivering food that gave you food poisoning.
You can’t really legalese yourself out of being liable if it can be shown you knew of an issue and did nothing to prevent it.
Now apply that to politics.
