2) Again same thing this prvents a scammer from hijacking an active user, adding an authenticator and scamming all their items
To this...
Not even 3 month later.
I have no iOS or Android device and I'll never use one in my lifetime. However I magically have managed to not get a single account of mine hacked/compromized in over 15 years. I don't need a parentfigure to tell me what is good for me and what is not. (Hint: Shapple or Datadroid is NOT good for me; feck google, feck apple and feck microschrott)
The moment you start trading for expensive items, your compromised account will be quite sad.
These security measures are there to protect people *exactly like you* who believe you're somehow 'above' the scammers and possible errors.
You aren't. I'm not. I mean: I don't run a firewall or virus scanner on my computer. I play it safe there. However, I'm also not attempting to use things like torrents or whatever - and the moment I would, I would absolutely install and keep active, those scanners.
If you want to use the market safely, you must do the same thing every other of the tens of millions of users here do.
Well well Valve has larger concerns and a wider demographic than you. I mean I don't "need" those things either. But I understand that most consumer software is never going to cater to me specifically. IE the security isn't there to hassle me, but help protect less capable users. And I can live with that. That sort of thing is never going to change, so you might as well yell about the Sun being too bright for all the good it will do.
@Zekiran: I feel quite confident after 15 years of scam-free experience. I run a firewall, antivirus, modified DNS, containers, monitor traffic with wireshark from time-to-time and last but not least: *common sense*. Also "protecting the market" doesn't make sense if my account with four-figures worth of games is not "protected".
This is a feature being implemented to force 2FA (and a horribly implemented version of it at that) on steam users while avoiding the obvious outcry such a forced measure would make on the full functionality of steam for everyday logins.
Steam has already had to deal with more than its share of whining from people who did exactly that, giving away their items to scammers, visiting unsafe websites, and the like - and we literally see this EVERY SINGLE DAY here, "it wasn't me, why didn't steam do something about this."
Because even if you are 'safe', you do not represent the lion's share of the people using this site.
Speed limits are supposed to be obeyed by everyone, there aren't exceptions because you're 'better at it' than anyone else, because all it takes is once.
And that once happens around here *hourly*.
Be glad it IS there, instead of complaining that it's not and you got ripped off.
Also speed limits are a really bad example for your point. I happen to live somewhere without upper speed limits and I regularly indulge myself in driving fast; Responsibly – when the road conditions and traffic allows it; On my own risk, slowing down when there would be others to be endangered by me. I don't need a nanny to change my diapers and neither do I need a guardian to keep me away from "bad people".
Also: have you just never, in your life, worked customer service?
Because it's pretty clear you didn't, or weren't particularly good at it if you did. They get sick of listening to the complaints, by people who for every single reason under the sun, "knew what they were doing really we do honestly we do! ooh is that a website giving away a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥!?"
Steam has always been DELUGED by people complaining about this. Your individual ability to break speed laws aside: they exist everywhere else *for compelling reasons*.
Of course you need to be guarded.
The alternative here is very, very ugly.
One upon a time Valve did have the option to opt out of Steam Guard in any form without adversely affecting trades. When some of those people who opted out lost their accounts, they still complained to Support. Even worse, when Support turned them down they turned to other sites to complain about how little Valve was doing to deal with stolen accounts. Not only was Support still getting hit with tickets that shouldn't have been filed, but they were getting a reputation as not caring about their customers. Valve felt that if they were going to be forced to take care of every account, then every account would have to deal with increased security.
Germany – Autobahn. Look it up. I'm not breaking any laws. Maybe YOU need to be guarded but don't project yourself onto others.
Also no, I never worked in customer support (luckily) and that is not my problem. My problem is that I physically CAN'T use the _forced_ 2FA, even if I wanted to.
How exactly is my account currently protected from being lost to scammers?
Besides my account getting stolen would be a lot more value gone. And NO – that does not mean that I want mandatory 2FA for all of Steam. (I'd welcome a reasonable *OPT-IN* implementation though like a Java applet that you can actually use on everything – even feature phones)
If you’re going to use terrible analogies

There aren’t 2500 accidents a day on the Autobahn. But nice try
