No one is pretending anything, and no one is claiming these laws aren't specifically targeting trans people, of course they are. What they are claiming is that the same law would apply to what is being depicted in the photo, which is true.

Great, Oblivion but blurry.
There's no EULA just like there's no NDA. That pop up and a one sentence post about not sharing info about the game on the forum is all there is.
There is no NDA for Deadlock, and anyone in it can invite anyone they want, as often as they want. It's not like Valve has no idea how to privately test their game. I think they made these decisions deliberately.
lol I would open every port on my router and route them all to wireguard before I would ever consider doing this
Honestly, I think Valve is just kind of doing a soft release/announcement and are trying to build up hype slowly like this. If they were really worried about leaks they wouldn't have given anybody in it unlimited free invites to send to anyone.
It's not too daunting. It has the same guide system as dota so you can just pick a build someone else made and follow it to learn them. It also has a lot of voice lines to help with reacting to item effects, like the item with an active that makes you invulnerable to bullets makes heroes say a "I can't shoot them" or "don't waste your ammo" voice line.
If you're not completely giving up on privacy I would avoid cloudflare. I just run an always-on wireguard tunnel that routes back to my home network from my wife's and my phones, and that kills like 3 birds with one stone (phone traffic is encrypted and hidden from my carrier, home server is accessible, and ads are blocked via DNS).
I'd just install UFW and either set the default for incoming and outgoing to deny and unblock the game ports manually, or just set incoming to deny and outgoing to allow.
You could pair that with OpenSnitch to see all attempted incoming and outgoing connections and block them by default, and then just allow the ones you want as they happen.
You can see from the timestamps the tweet couldn't have been up for more than half an hour. It's not like it was costing them anything to leave it up.
Plus in Linux you can actually fix this with a live USB, while on Windows you can run startup repair and hope for the best.
I realize a Civ game isn't going to have much to show off for a trailer, but this gameplay trailer has no actual gameplay lol
