The systemic issue you are talking about is far higher than any company or conglomerate. You cannot blame them for playing the game they've been given. The system itself needs changed, until such a day I will continue to use the products and services that do not ruin my bank or values. Therefore I will continue to use steam, they are not harming me, I am no fucking victim. The world you desire won't come to pass by crying online and telling others how to feel. Go be the change you want and protest, send mail to government officials, fuck it throw some tomato sauce in some paintings, do whatever you have to. But do not, under any circumstance think I'm going to change my mind on a service that I not only use, but like and most generally would endorse. If you want to change minds, you need a compelling argument.

ADHD rant over, thanks for your time.
