The thing is, they are necessary. There's an actual problem, even if you haven't been a victim personally. You're the guy complaining about seat belt laws because you've never been in an accident, so buckling your seatbelt is an unnecessary hoop.
You still haven't explained how you'd solve the problem. Declaring it's not a real problem is just denial, not a solution.
Email isn't 2 factor authentication. They had email-only confirmation, and that wasn't enough. The point of the app authorization is that a thief has to be in physical possession of your phone as well has having your Steam password and possibly your email password (particularly if they're the same).
They could use SMS authorization for every single transaction. They're doing it via an app because it's easier for customers. Doing it via SMS would be like setting up the app, which some people here are complaining about, for every transaction, not just once. Open app, tap once is less work.
Right, so your solution is to deny that there's a problem. Good job.Why should I have a solution for a problem I haven't had?
Just toss the app on your tablet then or pc if you have no other choice.

EDIT: I must admit, I wasn't expect a seat belt safety denialist on top of that. That's quite the icing on the cake.
You're not exactly arguing proficiently either. And using motorcycles without seatbelts is a very strong example of your inability to argue logically.
On a motorcycle, you are better off without a seatbelt in the event that you cannot go into a controlled slide. Had you put even a minute's worth of thought into it, it makes a lot sense. Cars are designed with roll cages, and staying in the cage is ideal. That's not exactly the case with a motorcycle. Now, helmets aren't legal in every state, and that boggles my mind to no end.
But you probably also think that outlawing murder is purely profit-driven as well. How dare a government be required to pass a law to protect its citizens when they're too stupid to do it themselves.
And not understanding 2-factor is the sole basis for your argument against it, which makes for a piss-poor counter. I have Steam installed on my desktop and laptop. If the laptop is stolen, there is literally nothing stopping someone from going to town on my credit card and wallet balance. Trading has been a massive vector for stolen accounts. 2-factor is simply a necessity because people are dicks.
Can anyone recommend Sid Meier's Civilization V: Brave New World for me?
Its currently $3.62 for me because of the huge bundle discount, just wondering if its worth getting considering the standard price is $32 bucks.
I remember back in the day when Steam sale threads were good, were generally about the Steam sale, and had good info in the OP. Meh.
I remember people always saying that.
Same thing happened on woot.com. Always saying sales were better earlier.
I think in this case, earlier steam sales WERE generally better. We can literally look a previous price history and compare.
Too bad there isn't a list of all the sales. I've bought some games last year that I haven't even installed or want to play. Will have to check this out when I'm bored then.
Oh wow thank you appreciate it, easier now.
Yup it's crazy if you are willing to wait which is why I also enjoy PC gaming.The value of some games at sale prices is incredible.
Portal $1.99
Dragon Age Origins complete $7.49 (I paid over $100 on PS3)
Burnout Paradise Ultimate $4.99

I would say that BNW as well as Gods and Kings are essential to get the best experience from Civ V. They round it out and bring it more in line with the mechanics of Civ IV. If you really enjoy Civ V, the < $4 is probably going to be worth it.
