Why is Microsoft, of all groups, monitoring Valve’s profits? That seems kinda weird to me, as though it’s overstepping some sort of boundary.
I didn't expect the Lemmy privacy mindset to go so far; competitor analysis is a thing in business, and when you aggregate such data you can also analyse industry trends and your business's position in it. I don't see why it's a boundary?
Myriad reasons. Guarantee Apple, Google, Sony, Tencent, and others on that list maintain a similar list.
