Which steam games have been removed by the US government?

There was the whole thing about payment processors raising a stink because of Steam, which is comparable and I have no evidence Dementia Don simps were not somehow involved, since this was started via some republican christofascist Karen association. But even if that does not suffice it for you, I'm not wondering about to the present situation, I'm wondering about the situation of when (not if) it happens in the future.

This had nothing to do with the USA. It was triggered by an Australian group of christofascist Karens, called "Collective Shout," leading to adult titles being removed from steam. Steam already region locks titles, so it would be easy for them to block titles for sale in countries with laws about NSFW matierial. What's unique about this is the christofacists put enough pressure on payment processors to shut down Steam's ability to sell anything in any country. The title pulls weren't the result of government pressure.

That was done by Australians and had nothing to do with the US government. Stick to the facts.
