Server and network a CDN edge, shared by unrelated sites Its domain was registered in 2000. mxverify looked up store.steampowered.com's address: it is served through Akamai (CDN), a content delivery network. Its address is shared edge infrastructure used by unrelated sites, so it cannot show who else runs on the same server, and sharing the network is no sign of a connection. Akamai (CDN) fronts millions of unrelated sites, so sharing it says nothing about who runs a site. The count is shown; the sites are not listed.
