Any Chance of Denuvo possibly being Banned? (feddit.org)

As an Anti DRM Gamer who really does not buy Games featuring Boot/RootKit i wonder if itd be possible to consider somehow a Ban against Denuvo, VM Protect and all these other Bullshit DRMs that go into your System and arent just tied to some kind of Online Service like the Steam Store for Example >.> Would that even be feasable in the EU considering that we got osme Stricter Laws than lets say the US regarding Multi Media Content :P

Not happening.

Games would become Epic exclusive before they give up their KLAC, and that would hurt Steam far more than it would hurt Denuvo. Steam would not make such a poor business decision.

If I were Steam, I'd insert barriers to purchases a Denuvo game. No promotion on the Steam storefront, a warning before purchase, etc.

EDIT: I thought Denuvo was KLAC for a second. Please disregard this entire reply.
