The Dark Side of Counter-Strike 2

The above commenter was probably inspired by the recent investigative(!) video series by Coffeezilla (and decided not to mention it?). It was either in part 2 or 3, where C-z alleged/suspected Valve's legal actions to have been mostly about good PR and to send a signal to those ~websites~ businesses to keep them in check. However it is indeed the case, that Valve has introduced greater and greater restrictions on inventory handling. The measures obviously go far beyond just counteracting possible scammers and phishing. Still, I am inclined to believe, they could've implemented all these features many years ago, if only they had wanted to. I highly recommend the videos. You can maybe skip the first one. It's mostly about casino owners' drama. [1]: [LINK] [2]: [VIDEO] [3]: [LINK]

It's wild to me that people will use things like this as unregulated security investments. Coffeezilla did a great video series exposing the CSGO skin gambling scene and how it borders on straight up crime and exploitation (especially of kids to young to legally gamble) and is well worth watching if you are interested in the subject. It's a three part series & I can't remember which one is first... The Dark Side of Counter-Strike 2 [VIDEO]

Good timing! If you have a spare hour that is. Coffeezilla just released two videos digging into the csgo skin casinos business: [LINK] [VIDEO]
