I've been trying to tell people for years this is how it actually works, now they're being ultra transparent about it so maybe people will actually care.
You know what else used to be standard? Slavery and feudalism. Things don't have to be this way.
I mean, slavery is still standard if you consider the prison industrial complex
Yeah isn't this like the thing that California required them to do?
They can though
People going on about being authorized do do this, not authorized to do that. General rule, don't listen to others telling you what to do and what no to do if they can't enforce their own rules. Steam and the rest of the digital corpos talk big, and act small. Do what you want, play your games not through steam, they handed the files to you and asked you nicely not do do what you want with them, you're perfectly free not to listen to them, and honestly you shouldn't listen to them 🏴☠️.
