> My email provider doesn't get involved in what I am emailing (even though they might be "facilitating" a crime or other unsavory),
I guarantee you they do. This is right from SendGrid:
__Twilio SendGrid Email prohibits sending of any content that is illegal or content that is harmful, unwanted, inappropriate, objectionable, confirmed to be criminal misinformation, or otherwise poses a threat to the public, even if the content is permissible by law. This content is not allowed, regardless of user consent.__
They then have a huge list of prohibited topics. Pornography, misinformation, hate speech, etc.
I recommend you check your provider TOS.
> the car dealership doesn't get involved in what I am going to use the car for
Car dealerships are free to refuse you service for any reason, other than being a protected class. I guarantee there is a long list of activities you could tell a dealership you'd do, and they'd refuse you service.
> I mean by your logic a grocery store could ask what business you are in, and not sell you food because that is facilitating what you are doing.
Yes, this is literally the case, lol. Not just by logic, but by actual reality. A grocery store can refuse you service for any reason other than discrimination of a protected class.
You need to update yourself with the laws in this country.
> But to suggest that it somehow reflects badly on the credit card company that they are used on a porn site is ridiculous.
They are free to do business with anyone they see fit. Pornography comes with the significant risk of actual harm to people. Therefore, they don't want to be involved.
If you don't like it, maybe capitalism isn't for you.
