It would take a lot more for them to steal a game that has no public executables though, like they would need some proper hacking or corporate espionage

There's a cracked Diablo 4 available and it's "online only". There are still bugs they're working on but as far as I know it's fully playable from start to finish.

That's different, it's not a game hosted elsewhere that you connect to via streaming. You download diablo 4, you have the game available to crack.
