Seems like buying games to remove them from your competitor is a scummier thing to do.

What are they being sued for? I guess I missed this?

Also I guess it could be argued they only removed it from new sales whereas people who already owned those titles on Steam still have them on Steam.

They are being accused of price fixing with the whole “can’t sell games for cheaper on other store fronts compared to the steam listing” thing

I think this lawsuit is actually about allowing people to buy dlc from other stores for games that you bought through steam?
