A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

How do you avoid the distributor stealing your credit card?
That is way less common than you seem to think it is. Most online payments are fairly secure.
Last I heard, identity theft and credit card fraud were rampant. Did something change?
Most smaller shops use some well-known third party to handle the payments, and you can tell as you are redirected to their site when it's time to enter your card details. Some even use Amazon Pay if that's the only one you trust.
PayPal is always an option. If it isn't an option then nope the fuck out.
PayPal itself has been caught stealing, if I recall correctly, so I'm not sure how that's supposed to be an improvement.
