    Well if a virus dev lied and hurt their rep it wouldn’t matter.

    A steam dev lying has brand reputation to care about. Any company larger than a 3 person indie team has to care about PR if they want to be more than a one hit studio.

    So I think it matters because its an impactful distinction between reality and your anecdote

      I didn’t say virus dev, but an antivirus dev / tool. It’s like you trust only an antivirus tool, that relies on what the virus devs report. The antivirus tool represents the Steam filter in my objection.

        Yeah so it still relies on virus devs report, like we both previously mentioned.

        That is where and who I meant was lying.
