Have you considered maybe Valves monopoly is natural? That is convenient to have all the games in one place and their customers like what they're selling?

That is what lawsuits are for. Why didn't this happen every other time a company did it?

They could do what many early tech companies did and offer a seperate price for business use if that becomes an problem

I do absolutely celebrate the contributions they've made, Proton beats the shit out of every alternative and it's not even close. Black hole vs mouse levels of curbstomp

I also think people with bad values should suffer for those values. I am an ideologue

Listen. I'm not saying these games are wholesome. But if it's not illegal in my country, I should be able to access it on principle. And frankly there's very few things it should be illegal to make media about
