    Feels like we’re a few moments away from someone unironically suggesting Steam start allowing people to just mail them cash.

      Hey, I’m all for creating a public online payment processor. An international one, even.

      I’m not even pulling any punches. There are no reasons to leave this in private hands.

      But this reeks of people being mad at the thing they know and feel have some influence with instead of with the actual problem, and it’s a bummer because it encapsulates Internet outrage and why it’s so often ineffectual.

      Well that’s actually not such a crazy idea. Proton accepts cash via mail as well, so apparently it’s doable.
