How Steam?
- Steam is the 800 lb gorilla in the PC gaming sector. It sort of is the biggest offender as far as Poland's argument is concerned.
  
  According to the game sales industry, providing a useful service is anticompetitive behaviour, because you might steal customers from the platforms that are screwing everyone.
- Poland blames steam reviews for cp2077 doing poorly on release, probably.
