Now they need a filter option to exclude games that have it.

And give refunds if it's added after purchase.

They do give a refund for this. I got it after they added it to EA Sports WRC. Explained to them that it was not in the original contract and that it prevents me using the product I licensed on Steam Deck and GNU/Linux and they refunded me.

And games made by ubisoft and ea and whatnot.

You can already do this. If you click on the publisher or developer there is an ignore option
