A new built-in system for creating and sharing your gameplay footage

If you’re talking about Game-Added Marker, that’s only applicable if the game have that feature implemented in. Otherwise, i seriously not sure why someone will freaked out by this, they can just, idk, turn it off like normal people. It’s not like an invasive OS feature that even if turned off, the feeling of it still watching you are there. Whether this feature from Steam will send metadata back to Valve still remain to be seen, as people will take a dig on the network side of this after release, but so far it doesn’t indicate it will.

Besides, Nvidia Experience also have the exact feature implemented, it’s called Nvidia Highlight, where dev can set when and where Nvidia should take a clip of your game. No out is being freaked.

It’s not just the games that support it, it will also tag other metadata it knows automatically on all games, like achievement unlocks. And you can manually add tags, too. It’s all telemetry that Valve and the devs are already extracting from you, of course, plus whatever you volunteer in manual markers, but it’s still a bit creepy to see it laid out on a timeline like that.
