I love how everyone is whaling on steam, the one honest good product that does digital sales, instead of the stupid streaming and online movie sites which this was targeted at.

I guess they were the only ones to make a significant visual change?

No, they're just the only ones doing it pre-emptively:

This disclaimer appears as though it's likely related to a California law set to come into effect next year

Probably because they know no one really cares.

No good deed goes unpunished.

I don't think anyone is "whaling on Steam". You can like Steam and also point out that they're complicit in the "you will own nothing and like it" society.
