Okay, but what about pre-steam DRM? But what about services that have existed for less time and actually done the slippery slope shit you're cowering in your boots about (Uplay)? You're so busy listing possible problems and making problems up that you are not comparing and contrasting your available options. It strikes me that you are complaining to complain and don't have realistic solutions in mind, you're asking for either a rental system where you put up collateral to play a game or you're suggesting that the developer only be able to sell a game once. Are you one of those crazy "first sale doctrine" sovcit types?
It's for Deadlock playtesters. I'm only kind of joking, but the amount of people who don't have a good recording software setup or that rely on windows key + alt + R recording is staggering. Game bar recordings are notorious for cutting the beginning or end of clips off.
As for as storefronts go, which is what's being talked about here, they are competing and winning. With a fraction of the employees other companies employ for storefront work. Origin (Rest Unpeacefully) and Uplay never stood a chance and epic has had plenty of time to market saturate. The company not being publicly traded doesn't prevent competition, it prevents investor interests like quashing competition.
You can play: Half-Life 1: Source Half-Life 2 Half-Life 2: Episode One Half-Life 2: Episode Two All with steam closed. Original half life expansions aside, your take is senile. I suppose alyx could've done without it.
Adjust isn't google adservices. The difference is staggering, actually, and way more than a hair's split on identifying information not being included.

I'm a horrible listener, I tune out the first time I have a clarification question that isn't answered, but I have no shame asking to read the rule book so I can understand it myself. I try to limit lawyering to myself or deliberate cheating.
In my experience, it's usually people trying to overexplain "homo sapiens sapiens" and "homo sapiens neanderthalensis" because they don't know anything about the topic at hand except those words. Subspecies on the character sheet has always been a technicality issue.
This got reduced, but they didn't refund anyone who bought it in the few days it was actually like this. Just use SPT (single player tarkov) or project FIKA (formerly multiplayer tarkov/MPT) if you already have the game tbh, they both work fine now.
SPT allows for some really interesting AI behavior mods among other things, too. Worth it even if you can stand officials near a wipe.
While I agree with the anti-authority statement, I have to say the rest of the post is approaching incoherence. This reads like you did translation party on some apologetics texts.
