G2A has attempted to defend itself from recent criticism with characteristic self-defeating flippancy.

The company doesn't consider fraud a real problem, accused indie devs of attention-seeking, and says even if it went away, the problem that isn't a real problem would still be a problem.

After publishing a lengthy article dismissing critics, G2A is now weakly claiming that what it does isn't bad because others are doing what they do.

Not great.
