    Valve isn’t going to remove your purchases unless Valve goes bankrupt.

    But make no mistake, they will do other anti-consumer and anti-competitor bullshit once Gabe leaves and the company becomes publicly traded.

    Things like throttling your download speed unless you pay their subscription. Being forced to watch ads whenever you browse your library.

    This is why we should NEVER put so much trust in a company that they can build up a monopoly, like all those Gabe stans are doing.

      This one corpos.

      I just threw up a little bit thinking about that future that 100% is coming when the business school fuckheads take over valve.

      There is no “good will” towards customers, it’s everything is a service and every single aspect of our product should be monetized… Downloading is a cost, monetize it! Browsing libraries has eyeballs focused on it, advertise!

      To these assholes it’s dumb not to do that.
