    IMO, I think it also has a lot to do with consoles, and how relying on the platform as a closed and secure system feeds into the thinking going on here. “Turn the PC into something we trust like a console” explains everything.

      You’re probably right, I can’t wrap my head around people wanting to be controlled like that sometimes, wanting such intrusive and dangerous software installed just to play a video game. It’s PC, we don’t want a console experience. Even Valve that are making these products is making sure you can just use it like a PC.
