Should credit companies decide what content is allowed? And award-winning science photography
Description
Two online game platforms, Steam and Itch.io, have removed hundreds or thousands of games that are tagged as including adult content. They've said that the move was necessary because they were at risk of losing access to the financial institutions like Visa, Mastercard, and Paypal, that allow them to process transactions. Rainey Reitman and Kath Albury explain why those payment companies have gotten involved, and what would it mean for financial groups to become the moral arbiters of art and commerce.
And Sarah Lloyd and Ben Alldridge, two of the finalists of the Beaker Street Science Photography Prize, take us behind the scenes as they capture images of microscopic slime mould and bio-fluorescent quolls.
