A new indie game has just been banned by Steam, but why? And now, face scanning for age verification is being pushed in the UK and other countries, raising major privacy concerns. On the latest episode of Outside of the Echo Chamber Ole Gamer Joe and SilentSigns discuss the growing censorship issues on Steam and other gaming platforms, and the controversy around biometric age checks being introduced across Europe and beyond. The duo also goes over the latest indie gaming news stories, has a fun icebreaker question, and more!
