Sure, I'll participate... Next... Next... Oh, they detected a list of my hardware that they want to send? Sure... I'll check it first, though. Scroll down... Find list of all my installed software. WTF valve? Cancel!

Yes, they could have. They didn't. Also more negative publicity. So it has to be optional. Jesus fuck, grow a fucking brain.
