Valve Caught Editing Odds - The Problem with Frostivus 2023

Valve's problems with transparency, a look into their actions during the launch of the 2023 Frostivus Update.
Treasure odds were always consistent, but they edited their original blog posts to seem like they were transparent and displaying odds when they in fact weren't for the most important days of release.

For clarity - where I say things like "so they have the plausible deniability to say they were there all along" I'm taking about the implications of their actions to the regulators who ARE paying attention right now. They're making it seem like they're following the rules set forth by certain countries and doing the bare minimum to try and keep regulation at bay. I'm not saying that Valve are going out of their way to state these things, but those are the implications of those actions. Also - for some reason it isn't possible to view the content of steam pages on way back machines, etc. I am trying to gather receipts to collate all of the times in the past that they have pulled this move, editing odds into old posts.

Its a very good work. How about to create a dota themed yt channel with fact-news-stuff videos like in this one? More people must see good work like this
