    They don't have ideal.ing though, waiting for the first scams to start popping up. iDEAL is the payment system in the Netherlands. And they use ideal.ing.nl for it.

    Couldn't the library implement a conditional operation using the etag, retrying if it fails? That should solve the consistency guarantee. Ofc its a different matter if you write to…

    The GeForce Now leak was pretty big as well, leaked tons of unannounced games. There was also a leak of one of Ubisoft's games, not sure about source code.
