Gaben himself in interviews says all data points towards the best way to combat piracy is by providing a good service/convenience.

And yet people still pirate Steam games all day ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Then they started becoming bastards in every single aspect of convenience and cost so back to sailing.

ie: "I justify theft to myself because they charge more than I personally think they're worth."

Compared to even 10 years ago, game piracy is almost nonexistent. Steam is the reason.
