Valve’s Gabe Newell gives out his Steam password

Why Gabe, why!? Oh, right. Earlier today, we told you about Steam Guard, which (optionally) allows you to restrict your Steam account in such a way that short of a thief breaking into your home and logging into your designated computer, your account is safe.

Some people aren’t keen on Intel’s hardware-based DRM, and I can appreciate that. If such factors are not a concern to you, however, Steam Guard seems like a worthwhile concept.

Kind of a silly stunt, I know, but screw it — silly is good.

Mr. Newell has a challenge for you… [Reddit]
