Kyle, you and Jesus deserve troll of the year awards. How do you expect to verify yourself over the phone when you lose access to your account? The "last 4 digits of your credit card" method is pretty much a cross-industry standard. From phone companies, to power companies, to credit card issues themselves, it's common. For your next article on this subject I expect to hear you whinging about how hard it is to verify your identity when you've lost access to your account. How about a blood sample? How about reconstructing clones from the alleged account holder?
In general it's not Apple's, or Amazon's, or anyone else's fault that someone has obtained your credit card number and abuses it for authentication purposes. You know that multi-page agreement you got with with your credit card? The one that tells you to guard your number as it is YOUR responsibility? It is of course Amazon's fault in THIS case for allowing unauthorized access to your account, through which the credit card number is obtained.
Blame needs to be laid where blame is due. If Mat used his public facing email address to sign up for all of his accounts, the mistake was his. You should have a secret email address, or alias, for setting up accounts with. Your vanity email address is cool no doubt, but when you share it with everyone, then post on your blog how much [shtuff] you buy from Amazon.... I'll let you put two and two together.
PS: Both the audio and visual captchas for burner are retarded.

Speaking of Scottish probes, did you know that six of the 12 American astronauts who have walked on the
moon (Neil Armstrong, et al.) were of at least partial Scottish ancestry? I wonder where they went wrong?
Man you owe us big time!

but not very good at soccer

Originally posted by robbie carrobieAlmost everyone is a mongrel. There are very few isolated peoples in this world. The Scots are mongrels of Picts, Welsh, English and Norse. The English are mongrels of North Germans, Dutch, Danes, French and Welsh. The Dutch are mongrels of Franks, Saxons, Rhinelanders, and these days Indonesians. Even the Welsh are mongrels of Welsh and sheep.
Americans are mongrels 😲

Originally posted by ChessPraxisWrong and Evian... sorry, Naive.
Sorry pal, but all the water in Europe is someone else's sewage. I drink ONLY beer made from Pure Rocky Mountain Spring Water. Comes straight from a virgin spring guarded by Russ' minions. It's patrolled by lizardmen in Illuminati UFOs.
Top that me matey 😛
Imprimis, all the water in the world is someone else's sewage, if you go back long ago.
Secundis, I'd rather have properly purified sewage than improperly purified spring water with goodness knows what heavy metals leached into it from the surrounding rocks.
And tertiis, why do you think one general term for the overpriced dissolved chalk is "Spa water"? Matey duly topped, methinks.
