Okay - go tell Valve to subsidize it for marketing purposes then.

not much to abuse
Then I’m misunderstanding this part. The PS3 compute cluster incident commented below is what came to mind.
But in the current climate I image that if the Steam machine was heavily subsidized that there would be a subset of people abusing that by doing something like purchasing, harvesting, and immediately reselling its parts.

Consoles make an attempt to be a locked ecosystem - which is why they can subsidize it - because they know if you buy it your buying their games for it.

Steam Machine

They need to have air brakes or be somewhere in the 12+ ton range to need special license.
Certain States allow you to tow a RV trailer with an additional trailer for your boat – essentially tandem trailers. No license needed.

Mark my words, future ai models will be able to search all about you.
There’s already ways to search you - so this is already a thing “it” can do.
Even without “it” there are already ways to identify you by how you walk.
Not that you shouldn’t take steps to decouple your online life. But you’re just being silly.
