> How, exactly, is steam going to prevent you from accessing the files on your computer

The vast supermajority of games on steam require steam itself to be operable in order to even run. Valve absolutely can break or turn off steam and (legally!) revoke access to most games on most steam user PCs that way.

Are you sure they can legally break my games without due compensation? For any reason whatsoever? I find that hard to believe.
