And? It would take a trivial amount of effort to spin up VMs and install the game on each. If I immediately tear the VM down after, I'm sure my cost would be covered by free AWS credits.
Why would anyone do this? Most games also don’t give you an unlimited amount of installs.
Trolls. Competitors. Vigilantes. This is the Internet.

On the number of machines you can install it on. Windows store games do this.
