Topic on User talk:Cyanic/Steam DRM

Sorry, didn't notice this comment earlier. I'm not seeing which part is misinformation. Steam DRM is the official name given to this particular scheme, as you can see at https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/features/drm. SteamStub is a common name given to this scheme by scene groups. I don't think I've claimed that it encrypts game files other than the main EXE. API emulation is a different matter, and can't be relied on solely to bypass the wrapper's authentication as the wrapper also verifies app tickets, which are signed using public-key cryptography.
