Valve: “We need a credit card on file to prove you’re 18”
Me: “My account is 23 years old”

Renaud Berthier@SIT @SecurityWriter They may have change stance (dunno where the screenshot is from), but it was not their original idea: https://andregarzia.com/2026/03/apple-just-lost-me.html
@rberthier @SecurityWriter Interesting, I saw this on Reddit a few days ago from a UK user and cut the screenshot before saving it.
I also noticed a user explain how (hard it was) to get the driver's license accepted to a user who hadn't managed it, so it might not function as reliably as it should.
