In an apparent attempt to avoid being banned by the Kremlin, computer games distribution platform Steam has removed 11 pages from its website with content considered illegal in Russia, the country’s media regulator Roskomnadzor said on Tuesday.

    Steam, why you not just ban all of Russia? If nothing else it would be funny.

    Didn’t know Steam was still operating in Russia. Kinda makes sense it being the third biggest user base.

    Still gonna count it as another reason not to use Steam anymore tho.
