Sen. Mark Warner Demands Valve Address Extremism on Steam After ADL Report, Citing 1M Accounts and 100K Groups
Nov 18, 2024, 01:42 PM
U.S. Senator Mark Warner is pressing Valve Corporation for answers regarding the presence of extremist content on its gaming platform, Steam. Citing a report from the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), Warner highlighted that Steam hosts over 1 million accounts and 100,000 groups that promote hate-based content. The ADL has characterized the volume of extremist material on Steam as staggering, urging Valve to take more decisive action to combat the spread of hate and protect its users. In an open letter addressed to Valve's CEO Gabe Newell, Warner criticized the company's current content moderation practices, suggesting a 'hands-off' approach that allows virulent antisemitism and other forms of violent rhetoric to proliferate among millions of users. The senator's call for stricter moderation reflects growing concerns over online extremism in gaming communities.
