And why sex-workers and porn industry (I'm talking about legal stuff here) have not created their own paypal all these years?

Note: For the most part I agree with the sentiment of the article and I am allergic to all harassment but the "financial domination" thing rings other bells. The people having a taste for it seem to me akin to gambling addicts and in need of protection.

I'm guessing that it's because of the larger cut that these 'high risk' platforms and processors take or a bunch of other restrictions we are not aware of?

Hm - not sure I get why the risk in porn industry is higher. If anything I'd bet that it's the most stable industry ever catering for a real need that won't go away as long as people care about sex. Dunno but I feel that there are a lot of business opportunities here and a huge market that has been sloppily served for anyone that cares to look at it seriously.

I'd bet on a lot more charge-back demands.
