This was taken on my PC using Vesktop client

Edit: Could be alot worse I envisioned popups and such with videos playing etc

    The first time I saw this was yesterday and I thought it was an April fools joke.

    There’s an opt-out in User Settings under Privacy & Safety.

    So the way that promotion is worded, if I stream “the finals” to a friend for 15 minutes I’m guaranteed to receive that item, shipping paid for and all, like in a quest? Or are they just baiting and entering you in a lottery?

    Seems like an easy way to farm real life merchandise.

    Vesktop client

    Heh, so you’re halfway there already.
    Find which CSS class this stupid thing uses, hide it and bye bye forever.
    Matter of time until someone makes a plugin to stop the client from fetching new data from these endpoints
