Everyone else is only talking about the scummy affiliate revenue stealing, but that's been public info for a while.

The more alarming stuff is that they partner with businesses to manage the coupon codes shown on Honey. If a business doesn't want consumers to have discounts below a certain percentage, they can remove those coupons from Honey. This means that Honey no longer does the thing that it's advertised to do, and they're getting paid affiliate revenue after lying to consumers.

I've read enough accounts from both men and women to know that sexual harassment is not taken seriously at many places.

Just because it's losing market share doesn't mean it's not a monopoly, let alone an illegal one.

It's simply an institution meant to interpret laws and their legality. All of that goes out the window when the people in said institution are politically charged, corrupt, or make bad arguments.

As an American, it's really sad to see the EU fall into this trap.

The vast majority of these "timeless" games seem to come from smaller devs. Minecraft started out indie before being bought out, Terraria is still indie, NMS is a small team etc. They work on those games because they want to, and it makes them enough money to stay satisfied. Games from publicly traded companies are held at gunpoint by their shareholders, so if they don't keep the money machine printing and they don't make it print faster and faster, they will face consequences.
