Recently got a VPN because I’ve become increasingly paranoid (It’s getting crazy out there), but… is it a bannable offense to use it while on Steam?

I’m finding mixed answers, and I wanna be safe, so I figured the Fediverse might know.

    No problems here and I’ve used a VPN with Steam for years! Just make sure the location of your account is set to your country so you pay the correct price for your area. c:

    If you already have an account, that should already be all good.

    About 10 years ago my steam account was locked for 3 months after bypassing regional pricing. At the time they said it was first and last warning and the only reason they didn’t ban my account was I’d previously got approval to change the steam URL to redirect to a different store region to purchase a game not available on my default store.

    Be careful.
