The lawsuit aims to "stop Valve from promoting gambling features in its games, disgorge all ill-gotten gains, and pay fines for violating New York\u2019s laws."

The downvotes are because this is an attack and steam and their rapid fan boys will do the needful to defend their favorite billionaire.

    Yep. As ever, all that matters are vibes. "Valve bad" = WRONG VIBES! Attacking someone who says "Valve bad" = GOOD VIBES! UPVOTE! Criticising the attack = BAD VIBES! DOWNVOTE!

    Doesn't matter whether it's bollocks.

    You know what's super funny about this? Your hatred for Valve is so god damned strong that your deep-fried head-circuitry can't process that something might not be about that. So, I'll spell it out in very simple terms.

    Stopping gambling in video games = Good

    Enabling people who can and have tried to censor and destroy the industry in the past = bad

    My hatred for valve? Where the fuck does that come from? I couldn't care less about them.

    Their billionaire owner on the other hand, can go on the burn pile with the rest of them. How he made the billions doesn't matter. I don't make exceptions when it comes to eat the rich.
