I think the trouble is that as soon as the dedicated servers are released, no-steam groups will go out of their way to crack them. However I really think that released dedicated servers would be really good for the community, especially for regions where Valve isn't prepared to host their own servers. IMO Most of the no-steam stuff will be mitigated by not making the binaries available until the games release, fanatics will jump at no-steam if there's no legitimate alternative. Piracy is a service issue etc.
