The client is basically irrelevant in this day and age. Anyone could build one better than Steam and it wouldn't even be hard.

No sir. Trust. Steam has earned trust from their customers. THAT is what the 30% cut pays for. Trust that we wont get scammed. Trust that it "just works". Trust that the service provider keeps our interests in mind when making decisions, not just the shareholders.

Maps like DeFlock rely on volunteers reporting cameras they spot; this inventory comes from Flock's records.
