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?

    This is done all the time to sell games that aren’t available as CD keys, against TOS.

    The seller usually gives you a login to a webmail they control, and the account is tied to that email. You can then change the email on the account and you have access to the original email to confirm the move.
