One question about VPN

yes, don't do it!

Technically yes, it's forbidden and mentioned in Steam TOS. But I've seen plenty of people do it and not get banned. There's always that risk.

Yes, and also with gifts you need VPN to play that game, so better don't do this, not worth the risk.

Atm you can no longer activate games via VPN ;) Now your account is bound to region you registered in, and if you're let's say in UK, if you log in with Russian VPN your account will still be UK account and you won't be able to activate russian restricted game.

Ok, i just ask. I saw many ppl that sell games that need vpn activation that is why i ask.

Yes you can get banned.
I once activated a Russian gift on my alt account and nothing happened tho.
