        I advise you learn from your brother’s mistake, keep a copy of them somewhere secure that your loved ones will be able to access when you’re no longer around. If you desire to pass it down at least.

        Nah, you can already sell accounts and they do nothing, this is just the support saying that they cannot give your data to others, this is to please two kinds of people, the privacy guys and the people selling on steam. They however do not enforce. Also its questionable if this sentiment holds up in court, there have for example been cases in Germany where Facebook was forced to give access to the parents of a deceased, so questionable.

          Their policy and what they do is not necessarily the same thing.

          Giving access to a free account is not the same as giving ownership of thousands of dollars in paid licenses.

            The matter is the reasoning behind it. And as i said courts would have to decide.

            And yes them not enforcing this basically means its just to appeal to the publishers, they probably couldn’t care less themselves.

    They can say whatever they want but I wonder what a the law of each country would say about that, which is what really decides what you can put in a will or not
