Goodness, me. I wish. Steam sure is good at selling me games that make me feel like I really want to have that experience though! Once it's bought, they did their job.
I've yet to see any ads for "How to spend time enjoying a thing just for yourself without feeling guilty and anxious that you're being left socioeconomically behind and the next (un)planned economic downturn will ruin everything for sure this time."
So... y'know they could be doing a better job. Lol
Also $10 is $10... nobody's personally selling it, it's just floating around and it could be bought if the Islamic Jihad wanted it LOL.
I'm more concerned about things like, selling my data like vehicle usage or DNA to insurance companies who would use that data against me.
