Found the Sweeney fanboy. Just because Timmy-boy can't install kernel-level malware on Linux doesn't mean Gabe Newell is going to use it to conquer the Earth, bud.

Steam also places DRM and states in their EULA that you pay to license the title and not own it. Looks like you're a Steam fanboy. We shouldn't be fanboys of anything but simply notice the good and bad thaf companies do because either way they aren't our friends

Developers place DRM, that's not s requirement of Steam publishing. Also, 99% of digital stores state you're only buying a license. That's a problem with modern society, not Steam.
