A 12TB Steam "teraleak" spills more than a decade of lost PC gaming history

Yeah the long forgotten Steam release of League of Legends is also in the files (it was only available for like 5 months)

Might not be the most interesting game in the leak but old versions of live service games are almost impossible to come by

https://steamdb.info/app/20590/

Downloaded it to extract all the old assets but it still needs an encrypted depot key

>error!! -- extract: missing depot key!, pass --key if you know it though

Some people reported that "--key 0000000000000000" or "--key 0" works on some depots... well not here

Good question. Probably in a jurisdiction Valve can't touch, or they're just indexing stuff without hosting the actual files. Either way, it's risky. Valve's lawyers are definitely already on it

How can they (host, domain owner) not get sued?

They probably will, that's why it's good to grab the torrent while we can.

		The DHT network picked it up already so the magnet link is enough. At this point it will be available forever (as long as there are seeders)
