I’m pretty sure I’m done with Steam gaming, haven’t launched a game in almost a year, and generally want to move away from DRM.
So I had the idea I could just “give away” my Steam account.
Create a new email address without personal info attached, tie it to the Steam account, remove my payment info from Steam and just post the email and password somewhere (maybe here) for the first lucky person to claim.
Would that be safe, or is it possible to recover the changes I made before and get access to my private info? Or is there a better way to give away my games?

Not as a protest. I just didn’t feel the need to create an account for a game, so I bought an account that was already created.
Did HL2 come with the account or did you just buy an empty pre-made Steam profile?
The game came with the account. I ostensibly bought the game, but the guy gave me control of the account the game was locked to.
This is more like buying a used game and describing it like that would be less confusing lol
