plus they get to control and censor information much more tightly
Censoring parts of gameplay as you play would be very impressive, btw. Not in a good way, but impressive, like when I first found out about ISP replacing/adding ads on http pages
once computers are completely in their hands, they can control and censor much much more than just games.

That's clear, this is just a weird image
Also, I believe they don't really need to have complete control for that, too
they do when the computers are hosted on their own cloud
