Senator questions Valve over extremist content on Steam platform

U.S. Senator Mark Warner has questioned Valve about extremist content on its gaming platform, Steam. He noted the presence of user accounts and groups promoting antisemitic and white supremacist ideologies, including 40,000 groups with hateful names. Warner's letter cites violations of Steam's own Conduct Policy, which prohibits content that encourages violence. This is the third letter from Congress addressing the issue, and Valve has not yet responded to previous inquiries. The senator has requested answers regarding Valve's moderation practices and team size by December 13th. He warned of increased scrutiny if the company does not take action against hate content.
