EU court upholds fine against Valve for geo-blocking

Back in 2019 the EU went after Valve and select publishers on Steam for geo-blocking, Valve tried fighting the fine but the EU Court dismissed it so it's likely Valve will now have to pay up.

wait "Valve tried blocking people buying games in different EU regions to get them cheaper, which is a breach of EU rules. Valve did already stop doing this years ago" <-- how do you do this ๐Ÿซฃ ?

Yay Valve loses, just joking, I think that Valve did that mostly to allow people in poorer to access game in more affordable price, and even without geo-blocking those game companies will either geo-block in other regions or price their games in the countries with less purchase power the same with others.
