I notice that Valve’s support desk thinks very humanly in itself.
You see that people who use the automatic detection system often receive a message, a warning or sometimes a temporary ban.
Major violations are punishable by license revocation or a permanent ban.
(Major violations are, for example, buying licenses in South America via VPN and using them in the Netherlands. In short, violations that you consciously want to gain financially from)
If you set up a VPN to play a game that is not available in your area, the bans will not be issued quickly at all. (I only read about this on forums that people got a message or warning)
The notice should be seen as a statement in which Valve indicates that you are solely responsible for the use of software and that you may be in violation of local law.
The warning almost speaks for itself, you are violating the terms of use of Steam or the software you use on steam. If repeated, other measures may follow.
A temporary ban can sometimes be issued if you have almost deliberately abused it.
In case of major violation, they will revoke illegally obtained licenses without you being entitled to compensation
Don’t try to argue with them if they are right, because you can also be punished more severely with….
From permanent ban.
You have lost everything for good, the forums lead you to believe that objecting to this often has little effect.
If they want to impose this penalty on you, you must have repeatedly made a mistake or really did something that is unacceptable.
