It's understandable that it's frustrating that you cannot connect and play. But again, there's few alternatives and right now I don't think 1C will swap platforms due to the fact that they actually make far more money selling their products over Steam compared to regular over-the-counter sales. And as usual, money talks, bovine excrement walks.
There are tons; it's the publishers who prevent them from flourishing. First of all there are several great platforms that don't require messed up 3rd party, like GoG, Gamersgate etc.

But then again, if it's just about contend distribution then Desura and Origin are definitely almost equal.

And no, Origin isn't worse than steam when it comes to privacy...
