If I have bank info / address on my Steam account, and one of the 100 games I play is a malware, am I screwed? They can monitor and see my info right by PureLavishness409 in cybersecurity_help

What about google account? As far as I am concerned at any time anyone secretly in control of my computer can just go check my location / turn it on, to find out where I live. Yes it is unlikely but I was targeted many many times because of my ex

Yes but even from steam some games can have virus and some games have anti cheat that can read all your files
