Oh. Steam tried to rip gamers off so hard that they removed forced arbitration clauses and class action waivers from their terms of service.
Steam is a monopoly no doubt, but it’s not a result of major anti-competitive behavior, but simply because others can’t match it.
To be fair they did that because law firms were seeking out frivolous arbitration bullshit to try to extort them into settlements.
But their market dominance is definitely primarily about how much better they are than anything else.
But the outcome is good for me at least and I’m satisfied.
