MODERATORS
If they were Ubisoft, Sony, Nintendo or any other shitty company they could block access to the Steam account or ban it outright, cutting me off a library with hundreds of games. Hopefully, Valve is not like that yet. So, yes. I trust they wouldn't do anything fucky when they notice that I'm connecting my Steam account to a device, theoretically, blocked in my region. But there's some really intrusive shit you could do to prevent access or force it to be a piracy only machine.
I mention it because I remember some friends tried to grey import a PS5 and the device soft locked them when the IP didn't match the region they chose. And Nintendo has done way worse, up to outright destroying accounts.
True, but they at least can't brick the hardware itself, and if you were concerned about your steam account there's always VPNs.
