You still need your gog account to download games though. And they have multiplayer games anyways.

It's far better that it applies to everyone.

I need an account to make the purchase and download, but I can then delete my account and keep the installers on a hard drive.

And you can delete steam and still play the games on your computer.

But there's no installer, so I can't reinstall it on another device. With GOG I have an installer just like I'd have with physical media.

It doesn't matter. GoG should still be held responsible to the law. Every game store should be.
