Who knows though.

It’s just like all the steaming services. They’ll look the other way for a time, but then crack down whenever it makes the most financial sense.
No, that’s not it. Drag’s dragon has been to drag’s house and signed into steam on drag’s PC, but we weren’t able to get family sharing working.
