So, I take it none of you see anything wrong with Valve taking away the last vestiges of choice regarding what and when they install on your system.

Take it to a board that cares.

That's not the question. The question is "do you hate this enough to stop using steam?"
And for the vast majority of people (who indeed won't even fucking notice automatic updates, let alone nerdrage at them), the answer is "no".

If you hate it so much don't use it. I think some our traffic laws are nonsense but that doesn't stop me using the roads. There are much bigger issues to get enraged about than a software update you didn't want.
The only reason to dislike auto-updates is if it messes something up and more often than not it doesn't. In fact updates that cause mess ups are rare and if that's what you're moaning about then piss off to robot land where no one makes mistakes ffs.
If there was something really inherently wrong with Steam, like there is with some other DRM systems, I'd understand your pov. But there isn't so you just come across as pathetic.

Maybe you should marry your automatic update since you love it so much. Do you want to marry it? WELL I WON'T LET YOU.

I doubt that vH would understand Portal references, being anti-Steam Amish and all.

Now now don't be slandering the Amish. They're pretty nice folk. vH is a childish dunderhead.

The Amish don't protest technology, they just don't use it.

I think the word Evabot's looking for is Luddite.

You've obviously never met any Mennonites. They're like Amish with an attitude who occasionally drive cars.
Scary as shit, but damn can they build a barn.
