UNETE A LA LISTA DE COMPENSACION ECONOMICA
SCRAPES
### Selection of Most Harmed Potential Victims
From the list, the most harmed are developers and publishers with heavy Steam dependence (e.g., high commissions, parity restrictions leading to 30%+ revenue cuts) and consumer associations representing millions in overcharges from geo-blocking (10-20% price uplifts). I prioritized: MercurySteam (mid-sized Spanish dev, geo-blocking/commissions harm), Tequila Works (Spanish indie, parity/tying losses), Rebellion Developments (UK mid-sized, all CoAs exposure), OCU (4.5M Spanish consumers), and Which? (14M UK consumers). These align with €50M+ developer losses and €233-467M consumer harms in Spain/UK.
