Valve wanted me to send them a copy of my ID (amongst other things) in order to buy a Steam Deck. What they actually got was me closing my Steam account almost as soon as I opened it. Their "customer support" whose main training seems to revolve around how to be a smartass to their customers didn't exactly help, not that they were getting a copy of my ID regardless.
