I believe that it would be fair to say that we are all in the dark regarding this issue.

Why do I get this rather annoying feeling that a rather large segment of slashdot is rooting for the warezers, as though they're doing something good?

Ironically, it is because of the warezers that Valve have resorted to the authentification method.
