Valve's Gabe Newell Responds On VAC Reports; "We do not care what porn sites you visit"

DSOGaming writes: "Well, that was quite a surprise. Yesterday, a rumor surfaced claiming that Valve’s Anti Cheat system was collecting your browser history. A lot of people feared that Valve was spying on them, something that is obviously… how should I put it… ridiculous. Valve’s Gabe Newell felt the need to talk about this whole thing and made it crystal clear that they are not getting your browser history and that the company does not care what porn sites you visit."

amen brotha. it's my porn. Go find your own

thorstein3724d ago

Although, imagine pooling all that porn info and determining which sites were best based on genre!

cyguration3724d ago

Man I bet your wife completely disagrees.

thorstein3724d ago (Edited 3724d ago )

I think you're right. Porn has 4 letters, Gabe has 4 letters and VAC has 3.

Half has 4 letters

Life has 4 letters

3 is well, 3.

Half Life 3. I give alehandroelputo the golden show...erm...seal of approval.

XiSasukeUchiha3724d ago

So good is isn't going to be like Drm fiasco of 2013

alejandroelputo3724d ago

the worst "commentor" in the world. sasuke

tanookisuit3724d ago

He/She is trying to say "So good [of Valve]. It isn't going to be like the DRM fiasco [I'm guessing he/she means the Xbox 1 initial reveal] of 2013".

Alex_Boro3724d ago

Valve is the combine, looking at what porn you watch. HL3 confirmed.

cyguration3724d ago

Well that explains why they can't get anything done.

Team Fortress: Source 2 and Portal 64 Fan Projects Shut Down by Valve Takedowns

Fan projects Team Fortress: Source 2 and Portal 64 have shut down after Valve intervened in their development.

-Foxtrot110d ago

First they open Steam up to more AI, now they are shutting down fan projects when at one time they used to support or even give the fans jobs.

Wonder what's going on with Valve at the minute.

rlow1110d ago

@Foxtrot
It’s called money plain and simple.

JEECE109d ago

I mean, that might explain the Team Fortress 2 thing, because Valve might bring that to Source 2 (though I'm not sure I'd bet on that), but I can't see how Portal 64 hurts them. If anything, it's more attention to the Portal and therefore Valve/Steam.

Giblet_Head109d ago (Edited 109d ago )

There's potential that Valve had already planned to bring Source 2 to TF2 officially after Counter Strike 2. It's been getting some renewed attention lately.

Inverno109d ago

You got Nintendo to thank for Portal64 being taken down. As for TF2, most likely it's due to the probability of Valve working on a source 2 port themselves. It's sucks but Nintendo are the biggest pricks in the business and not letting this drag out into a huge court drama is the best decision.

Valve Opens the Floodgates to Allow More AI Based Games on Steam

Valve has updated its stance on AI games on the Steam storefront, allowing creators to publish AI-created games.

Droppedez110d ago

AI is just another form of slavery for our computer brethren.

Barlos110d ago (Edited 110d ago )

Hell no. I want games that have been made by creative minds who have a passion for their craft, not a bot with a penchant for plagiarism.

BrainSyphoned109d ago (Edited 109d ago )

So instead of paying for an engine and assets to create a game they are paying for an engine and assets to create a game.

Valve Tells Players To Stop Inhaling Steam Deck Vent Fumes

Valve has officially warned against inhaling the Steam Deck vent fumes in an official response due to potential health hazards.

gold_drake136d ago

my god, people are so dumb these days.

shinoff2183136d ago

I read the headline to my girl and she even reacted wtf is wrong with people. People wild

Notellin133d ago

I feel bad for her that she can't read and needs you to do it for her. Keep your head up!

shinoff2183133d ago

Notellin, I've been teaching her 😘

Jin_Sakai134d ago (Edited 134d ago )

This generation is about dumb as it gets.

frostypants134d ago

Huffing things isn't new to be fair.

SavageFlamingo134d ago

This has nothing to do with generations. It’s not a stupid challenge or anything. People just happened to smell it while they were playing. The steam deck exhaust is easy to smell without even trying. Just playing it you’ll smell it in the air around you.

Felix_Argyle_Catbro134d ago

"tHiS gEErAtIoN"
It's every generation, today you just see it more clearly thanks to internet.

k2d134d ago

To be fair, I loved the smell of glue, gas and certain plastics as a kid (new disc cartridges/new hardware, anyone?)

Si-Fly133d ago

Instruction manuals for me, best smell ever 😂

crazyCoconuts134d ago

I actually take a whiff of it once in a while, it's funny that it smells so good lol

DarXyde134d ago

Tide pod fiasco all over again

Felix_Argyle_Catbro134d ago

"tHeSe DaYs"
People have been just as dumb in the past, you just see it clearly now thanks to the internet.

gold_drake134d ago

thanks for that .. insight. ha.

rlow1133d ago

Well good thing about dumb people, they play an important part in human history. How else do we know which plants, animals and foods ar dangerous? Dumb people! They pay the price so the rest of us don’t have to. Lol

FinalFantasyFanatic133d ago

Honestly, I'm not even surprised considering some of the people I come across these days, inhaling fumes would explain a lot of things.

Wow people will huff anything nowadays some people just have way too much time on their hands.

Abnor_Mal134d ago (Edited 134d ago )

Another reason to love the PlayStation Portal, no chance of breathing in noxious vapors.

Get a Steam Deck they said, to which I reply, what are you high?

KwietStorm_BLM134d ago

Were you high when you typed this?

Abnor_Mal134d ago

Sorry bud no Steam Deck here.

134d ago
FinalFantasyFanatic133d ago (Edited 133d ago )

Even the Steam Deck does streaming better than the Portal (they portal is capped for streaming for some reason, whereas the Steam Deck isn't).

Neonridr133d ago

imagine pretending a glorified streaming device is better than a stand alone unit that can also, stream.

Stand by for the 'gaming kills' articles.
Que Halloween movie theme.

Nucleux134d ago

What does it smell/taste like?

Barlos134d ago

Better than the Switch cartridges is my guess.

Just to be clear, I've never licked a Switch cartridge, nor have I inhaled my deck's fumes.

Profchaos134d ago

Same never licked a switch cart I've always been worried more about where it's been than the taste but

Fluke_Skywalker134d ago

It smells good, that's the problem lol. When I first turned mine on I noticed it 😅
Better stop sniffing it then.

Barlos134d ago

I've had my deck for over a year, I've never been compelled to put my nose near the vent for a good lungful 😂

crazyCoconuts134d ago

I can't explain it... It smells...new

SavageFlamingo134d ago (Edited 134d ago )

Kind of like cheap bacon cooking. Even cheap bacon smells good.
