    Steam is partially funded by underage gambling. They know about this. They could literally shut it down within hours.

    They’re better than most, but that is a major moral failure they don’t get nearly enough flak for.

      I’m truly failing to think of any major game publisher not making money from children gambling. Nintendo does it, so do Sony and Microsoft. Unless it’s an indie publisher with a small handful of games, basically every single company is guilty of this.

        A lot of game publishers have micro transaction gambling, most don’t have a mult-million dollar real money casino’s built on their infrastructure and a business model based on teenagers watching CSGO gambling streams.
