It is not 'like teamviewer' . Refrain from spreading mis-information.

No it 'cannot tap into your pc as well'. You might as well call Twitch 'like teamviewer'. There's a difference between streaming software and remote access tools.

Not to mention DOTA2 isn't even streaming your screen. It's just sending a 'replay' of the game data that it store for each game. It's not a video stream.

Again refrain from spreading mis-information.

Firstly you can't log into steam on two different computers unless they're on the same local network.

Secondly hwo does that in any way relate to what you're talking about?

Maybe this dude thought that Steam IHS is a problem because it can, when done properly, stream your desktop. Except that this is still not a problem as only a madman gives his Steam account credentials to everyone.

Well, did you get what I mean? Namely that it's far from an issue?
