A new law has been passed in California which prohibits the use of words like "buy" and "purchase" on digital storefronts like Steam.

It’s talking about games that require an always on connection. You can save the installer for games like that, but the game still won’t work if it can’t phone home.

I’m well aware — that’s the whole point of DRM-free games.
