Just buy your own website and boomski 10000 emails you can randomly set up. [email protected] primary Bills@myfullname Admin@myfullname Fuck@myfullname Bullshitspam@myfullname

It's awesome, plus never get emails like hey fuck@myfullname there are hot horny people in your area code...viagrxxxxa etc.

Ahhh, but that's just UNACCEPTABLE CORPORATE SHILL BEHAVIOR, according to all these other clowns.

According to these assholes, the only reasonable response is to throw a shit-tossing tantrum, until the children of these particular game developers have all actually starved to death. That'll teach 'em to mildly inconvenience some people.

So if I'm being honest the only reason I learned this was because Gmail was putting work email to spam....as a freelancer...so I got a website I use for email...0 spam. It's amazing.

You're not a very chill dude and your girl tells me you don't even 69 so what's up with that username

Your anger about the people that are upset by this is way more irrational than the anger of those people. Like it literally doesn't affect you at all if people stop playing the game.

Someone steals your account

...and?

Who gives a shit? They're going to get my 0 dollars worth of Playstation Bucks that I'm never going to put in there?

They're going to play my other PSN games that I have on there? Except I don't have a single one of those?

They're going to fuck with my Helldivers 2 account? OH WAIT, THEY CAN'T DO THAT EITHER, BECAUSE THEY'D STILL ALSO NEED TO HAVE ACCESS TO MY STEAM ACCOUNT. The two accounts get linked. You still do all the game shit through Steam.

There is NO RISK, here. The only thing that could possibly happen would be someone spams my throwaway Protonmail account with nonsense spam. And I don't care about that.

Plenty of ways to fuck with you, getting the account banned, deleting it etc. Sorry friend but using a throwaway email for any accounts you actually use is a terrible idea.

You know what would solve this all? If there wasn't a dumb requirement for a PS account. See why people are annoyed with it now?

using a throwaway email for any accounts you actually use

When I say "throwaway," I don't mean "I forgot about it, and I no longer have access to it, and I picked a really stupid name and password."

I mean: "this is not the same email that I use to do my primary banking and contact my grandmother."

I have two-factor authentication set up for everything that supports it. I just looked it up, and PSN supports it. Yes, that doesn't mean it's immune to being hacked, but my use of a "throwaway" email address doesn't do ANYTHING to increase the odds of my account being hacked, for anything.

If you won't admit that, I don't care to discuss this with you, any further.

That's an even bigger pain in the ass than creating a throwaway account. At least throwaway would've been two second and forget it, now you're having to create an actual account.

No thanks.

In the UK, you have the choice between giving them a picture of your ID or doing a facial scan to complete the age verification requirement.

Lolz just give them a fake email...
