What the fuck is wrong with you? Defending property rights is not shilling for Steam! Fuck Steam; it’s part of the problem when it comes to pushing this “licensed, not sold” bullshit!
I’m not lying. Why are you lying in Steam’s favor, trying to pretend it’s entitled to powers it doesn’t have?
Steam dishonestly tries to pretend that buying a copy of a game is somehow something other than buying that copy, but Steam is not fucking entitled to override copyright law and the uniform commercial code!
If anything, you’re the one shilling for Steam – I’m attacking it!
Let’s take a step back to see if we’re on the same page
GoG grants you ownership of your purchases ← Wrong (in a minor way). Federal law itself grants you ownership of your purchases; GoG merely follows the law.
Steam grants you a licence of your purchases ← WRONG! Steam claims this, but Steam is lying to try to deprive you of your property rights.
GoG good
Steam bad ← Agreed, but not because games bought from them are “licensed, not sold.” Steam is bad for misrepresenting them as being “licensed, not sold” and using technical means to frustrate your ability to exercise your property rights.
Now quit calling me confused, because my claims have been entirely consistent throughout this entire thread.
When you buy a copy of a copyrighted work, you own that copy of that copyrighted work. Not merely “license” it.
Software is not an exception to this.
Corporations do not have some kind of magic privilege to override Federal law, no matter how much they dishonestly claim otherwise.
Steam shill detected.

If you aren’t a steam shill, why are you lying that steam gives you ownership of a game? It doesn’t. GoG does.

Either you’re an AI with like 1k parameters or you’re the most confused individual I’ve met today.
