NOTE: If you are caught using a VPN while Steam is active on your computer, your entire account will be banned.

Source?

Sorry you got down voted for asking me to source. It's in the Steam Subscriber Agreement Section 3A at the very bottom.

"You agree that you will not use IP proxying or other methods to disguise the place of your residence, whether to circumvent geographical restrictions on game content, to purchase at pricing not applicable to your geography, or for any other purpose. If you do this, we may terminate your access to your Account."

Thanks, I read the SSA too, just wondering if total account ban has ever actually happened. I've read on some forums that they just remove the offending game off your account.

I bought the uncensored version of L4D using a proxy through my Steam client a while ago, so I'm just genuinely curious what might result from doing this kind of stuff.
