Comment on Block Blasters: Theft of $32k in crypto from a stage 4 cancer patient due to valve’s incompetence in allowing malware on their platform
If it’s true they the malicious game has been available for a month then steam has some blame.
Why so? Assuming this is the 1st complaint against the game, what was steam supposed to do in the past month?
Steam could easily gave automation the installs and runs games in a sandbox. Then watches what they do. The things it needed to do to steal the crypto should be vastly different than what a game should be allowed to do.
Obviously, Steam is supposed to vet the source code of every game thoroughly before it ever gets put up for sale.
