I imagine gaben hiring a lawyer to be creative and clever to outsmart the puritan censorship control of valve and steam.

Mastercard+visa: suck my cock and lick my over-ripe anus
Gaben: hey fuck you
Gaben: hires lawyer to try to not have to do that
Gaben: lawyer, I'm not doing that. What are my options?

Gaben: what the fuck do i pay you for if that's your opinion?
