Unable to change email to an airmail.cc address?

[fun guy]

Why?

[fun guy]

I just blocked the troll, and I recommend others new here do the same. Tired of all this ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, just want an Steam issue resolved for ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ once.

[crunchyfrog]

And that probably speak volumes about what I originally said. Telling you the correct answer does not mean it's trolling.

Valve will not unblock a dodgy provider. End of.

Why?

You asked.

[Thesoxplace]

it's been pointed out why, I've even given you a very legit reason, scammers, lots of scammers in fact, it's mostly all ransomeware happening from that domain, because it seems whom ever owns it, gives no craps about people using it for fraud and other wrong means.

There's a report button on ♥♥♥♥.li and an email to report abuse on ovo.sc, the owner of the domain. If they didn't get banned, the email was never reported.

I also looked it up, and almost everything about this looks to be from sketchy domains. The rest is people complaining about the email being blocked.

Well you're free to use it, and any business is free to reject it and they don't even need a good reason. But it seems like while it has features that appeal to you OP, some of those features make it somewhat incompatible or undesirable for other businesses for a variety of legitimate reasons.

Either the spiel on the website has convinced you completely, or the lack of support from multiple businesses across the Internet gives you some pause. You decide which has more weight.

You need to stop blocking people who aren't trolling you while claiming they're trolling.
That makes you the worst person of the two of you.

It's bad form to block anyone who disagrees with you.
Especially when they are speaking the truth.

All you're going to do is make everyone angry at you, and then get yourself kicked off the forum.
Use Hotmail if you're scared of Google!

But don't use an e-mail that is assiocated with bad websites!

Your logic is fundamentally faulty, and you are far too biased to be taken seriously.

And stop abusing the block feature on this forum to get rid of anyone who tells YOU THE TRUTH.
THat is one of the quickest way to get thrown off a forum.

I'm beginning to think that Steam preventing the account I was wanting to change the email on from posting on the forum was a sign to stay the ♥♥♥♥ away.

Nah, why Valve do this is to stop dodgy ♥♥♥♥ going on. They also block a whole load of things. Go and look at the dodgy key reseller sites and try to type them in here (I would tell you what they are but I don't want to for obviious reasons).

Again, this isn't JUST a Valve thing though - as pointed out by others, that site has a poor reputation, and I'm more inclined (as you should be) to believe a load of security professionals whose very careers are based on this, over a group of anonymous party/parties that say "honest guv, I won't sell your data" and offer no evidence of it.

Valve basically just block anything that could lead users being fleeced, stolen from, or otherwise scammed or hurt in some way.

I don't think places with sketchy names like howtofix.guide, or bestsecuritysearch.com, etc are run by a load of security professionals. Even then, it's the same as if someone used a Gmail, or Yahoo, or mail.com address for the same thing, but nobody would pay attention, because "big company good, small company bad". This is entering shill territory if you believe that the big companies won't ♥♥♥♥ you at every opportunity to get money out of you.

Also, how liberal are you all really if you get offended by this and want to restrict users e-mail domain choices? Isn't the entire liberal ideology based upon more choices?

You seem to not understand how any of this works.
AT all. Ever.

Are you just messing with us?

If you need security use something known and trusted, like protonmail

as for "why isn't steam allowing x" its because of how many people use it for scamming and other "non legit" stuff

Have you seen all the ♥♥♥♥ about Protonmail that is actually true and from legit sources? Of course not, because big company has to be good. I'd bet money you've never heard about Protonmail using DarkMatter/QuoVadis certificates, which is part of an United Arab Emirates spying program.

Also, anyone with the proper precautions could use Gmail, Yahoo, Protonmail, StartMail (Which is related to StartPage, which is related to an actual legit browser hijacker, but "big company can't be bad"), Tutanota, etc to scam. So it doesn't matter.

Here we go. Everything is connected to a scam. Stop claiming that. It's beyond absurd.
That's why we know you can't be serious.

No one literally shuts down every single e-mail hosts as being part of a vast conspiracy.
Knock it off.

Seriously.
Stop it.

Not what I said. I said anyone with the proper knowledge and precautions could use any email provider for scam.

QuoVadis and DarkMatter are completely separate entities, and it's still up to DigiCert as a root certificate, all that "UAE SPYING ON PPL!111!" is more of a fearmongering than actual problem

https://protonmail.com/blog/dark-matter-quo-vadis/



and as far as searching airmail.cc... both google and duckduckgo all return results like "How to remove x ransomeware"

Even github stopped supporting it in 2019

Why use unknown random email provider? You complain how big doesn't equal good but small doesn't equal good either, you shouldn't trust a company just because they are small

Github has been ♥♥♥♥ since Microsoft bought them, they've been fighting Firefox and its forks by implementing Chromium technologies to make it load faster and only properly work on a Chromium browser. Of course they'll take the "small company bad" approach.

I've also done research and comparisons over time, as the companies get bigger and bigger, the less they listen to the people and the more they chase after money. For example, Reddit went from the bastion of free speech to a partially CCP owned censorship heaven. Discord went from a chat client that listened to the community that even put custom connecting messages from the community into the client, to one that breaks ♥♥♥♥ for no reason, doesn't revert changes the community hates, etc etc. I could name more examples, but this post would probably hit some character limit at some point.
