Comment on Mastercard deflects blame for NSFW games being taken down, but Valve says payment processors 'specifically cited' a Mastercard rule about damaging the brand

  Seriously rediculous, most people don’t even know if their card is Visa or Mastercard, nor do they care (because they dont know what they are or what they mean).

  (This is from my experience with people i know)

    Mastercard have changed their design so that it no longer says Mastercard on it, and it’s just the two circles. I bloody hate it, MasterCard thought they were able to get away with it because they thought they had brand recognition but literally no one cares about them.

    Also they’ve been fine with porn games up until now and literally no one cared.

  I use Paypal and they charge my Discover (Novus network, IIRC). No MC policy issue, let me buy what I want.

  I don’t have any credit cards saved on steam. I only use PayPal for steam purchases.

    😬

    I’d rather pay with my actual blood than use PayPal.

      It’s purely because steam hasn’t been able to keep my login info secure for almost a decade. I’ve changed emails, passwords, both, and yet I will always get random 2FA attempts from other places. I just don’t trust them to keep my bank info safe either.

        check your email addresses, then check for malware on your system.

        that’s definitely not normal…

        I’m looking at this and I am just wondering… Did you also check the computers your using?

        It’s quite a bit easier to get in the pc of a normal user than it is to get into the computers of valve, or at least that’s to hope.

        Interesting. I’ve been using steam for decades and the only time my account was compromised was due to my own machine getting some malware. It was easy enough to clean up, reset password and reset all my steam sessions.

        Now my blizzard account on the other hand… I got so tired of defending it that I’ve cleared all my CC and personal info from the account and just decided to let the hackers have it. Their shit leaks bad.
