As someone who has never used a credit card and never will due utter disgust in that they can't even get basic authentication right, here's a big fuck you. I am a constant victim of retarded sites that try to pin down some identity other than a password to users. Trying to identify people you don't know is plain bullshit, and the industry should stop. Why the fuck do I have to prove who I am to a computer? This is like trying to explain to a lemon what color is. The only thing all of this bullshit amounts to is that id fraud is incredibly easy, because nobody knows what information they are supposed to protect.
Stop fucking using IP addresses in conditionals. Same goes for anything else that is not a username+password or unguessable token. Period. If you're in a job that's prolonging this behavior, quit. There is an endless supply of places you can work at if you're a good developer.
