French consumer advocacy group UFC Que Choisir has filed suit against Valve -- alleging that its policies with Steam are problematic and even, in some cases, run afoul of the law.

The news comes via a Reddit post by user Silencement that summarizes UFC Que Choisir's own news story [link here, French language] on its lawsuit. Here's that user's summary of the the organization's points:

Steam's Subscriber Agreement explicitely forbids users to sell their games, despite the transfer of ownership of digital products/licenses being legal

Valve declines any responsibility in case they get hacked and users' personal info get stolen

Valve claims ownership on the rights of any user-created content uploaded on Steam

It is impossible to get the money on your Steam Wallet back if your account is closed/deleted/banned

Valve applies Luxembourg's consumer law regardless of the user's country

This sort of consumer-focused lawsuit appears to be par for the course of the group; last year, UFC Que Choisir sued internet giants Twitter, Facebook, and Google over their privacy policies -- calling them "incomprehensible" and "illegible." Outside of the internet realm, the group also filed France's first-ever class action lawsuit against rental property company Foncia, on behalf of renters.
