Valve Removes Arbitration Requirement From Steam Subscriber Agreement
From Consumer Action Taskforce
In September 2024 Valve removed both the arbitration requirements and class action waiver from the Steam Subscriber Agreement, which is, essentially, Steam's End User License Agreement.
An exclusively positive event
This restores costumers rights to litigate, instead of only arbitrate, in order to resolves disputes with Steam.
