>please add a valid UK credit card to your account
Oh, well this shouldn't be a problem if you're actually buying games from Steam

>>719332717
If you don't own the game the community hub is still blocked after verifying.

>Credit card can be used to bypass age verification

good job, bongs

>>719332717
debit card =/= credit card. i think in steam's case it actually means debit card. but i know other services specifically require a credit card to "verify age".
debit card is the one you use with your bank to perform transactions.
credit card is the scam card you load up with money that's not yours and pay a premium if you don't pay back on time.
nobody should be forced to use credit cards, the companies track your info and share your spending habits with marketers. any company requires the use of a credit card to verify age are being paid by credit card companies to track and share your info.

>>719334678
ive seen some people mention that they used debit cards which is retarded because you can have one as early as 13
steam will almost definitely change this method to photo/id if thats the case
gaben is a huge fucking cuck for not blocking UK access outright to pressure the government. faggot retard caved in to not lose money just like he did with paypal and mastercard

>>719332503
if i was a britbong i would be so proud that i get to beta-test this new dogshit era of internet

>>719334810
It's not Gaben's job to fight your government, cuck

>>719334810
You're retarded if you don't think there's government ID attached to every single card that's issued.

>>719332503
Just pirate bro, we understand.

>>719332503
>OI GUVENA YOU GOT A LOICENSE FOR THAT HENTAI?

>>719335142
denuvo doesnt

>>719335051
the point is that you can get a card way before you are 18 which defeats the point of this age validation check

>>719332503
Move, or y'know, start a revolution, you did do this to yourself.

>>719334926
China and Russia did it before them

>>719334810
Nope,there are children and teen bank accounts.
Bank accounts are flagged as such.

The simple fact that the bank account is an adult one is enough verification any retailer would need because only someone 18+ can have one and needs to provide ID to create the account in the first place.

>>719335502
>you did do this to yourself.
Will you retards that don't know shit stop saying the same garbage like this.

>>719335462
Okay. They want your credit card so they can lookup personal details in some government database. The card itself is not used as an indicator that you're over 18

>>719334678
I get free money from my credit card and have never paid a dime in fees or interest. Have some self control

>>719335612
You did it to yourself. By your inaction, choosing to play video games and remain passive about happenings in your government, you let this happen.

>>719332503
can you remove the credit card after or you need it attached all the time?

>>719335621
Take your tinfoil hat off faggot
Valve would not have any access to some """""government database""""""" with all your personal details on it.
Presenting an ID would provide only as much information as is on the ID
Same as linking a bank account.
The only thing valve gets from a linked bank account would be the name of the person on the account, the account number and sort code and the secondary confirmation that the bank at some point has confirmed the persons identity and age themselves.

>>719335554
commie shitholes don't count

>>719335720
You're an utter single digit IQ retard and you have no idea what you're saying.
I didn't vote for this, I voted against this.
I was not "inactive" or "passive" you dense retard.

You're a literal child that has made his feeble mind up about what he wants to believe about a subject based on internet memes.

>>719335790
The point you fucking dumbass is to track you at all times. The government wants to know what you are doing at literally every walking moment.

just like we all voted against mass-niggerification of White nations right

what's the deal with bongs and kissing boot?
where was this mentality back in the 1930s when it would have been actually beneficial?

A cars issued to a minor would be flagged as such.

>he said fervently, on a forum about video games of all places
Yeah you did this to yourself.

Show me a properly developed nation where the people aren't all just subservient to their governments and corporations.

>>719335956
>I voted against this

If you were more active in yohr government's legislation process, you wouldn't even have to vote against it. It just wouldn't exist. You did this to yourself.

>>719334810
>Gaben should fight my government for me
Cunt, that's YOUR job.
Brits themselves are the ones who should be fighting this shit.
If you're not, then it means you want it, which means it's not our fucking problem anymore.
