Even if you believe that all privately owned capital is intrinsicly evil, you still ought to go after companies from most to least problematic within a specific category, no?

That is, for digital storefronts, start with the likes of Epic or in a broader digital gaming space in general, Microsoft or Ubisoft. Go after Steam when you've cleaned up the rapists, backroom dealers and collusionists.

You think humanity is unable to take care of two things at once?

You think Epic is worse when Valve has 70% of the market so they're in a position to ruin everything in a second? You realize that the PC gaming market is dependent on the goodwill of a single guy?
