To be honest, we don't like Steam China, it requires ID cards for real name authentication and makes it mandatory to reduce the violence level of the game

It requires a lot of censorship and modifications for a game to be released in China, which not only takes a lot of time, but a lot of content is not allowed to be shown because of the law.

Did China unblock Steam Global and are they requesting Valve take down Steam China because there have been no updates since the article i linked was released.

I actually use machine translation all the time, although I do learn English.

First of all, Steam Global is not blocked in China, you can still access it normally in most regions (just not the community).
Secondly, Steam has never been established in China, and the Chinese government has no right to ask Steam to stop selling in China under the agreement it signed when it joined the WTO.
Finally, Steam China is a platform opened by Valve in cooperation with Perfect World, and it is not mandatory for all Chinese Steam users to use

As for how I access the Steam community, you can check out this open source project at github.com/BeyondDimension/SteamTools

Is the article a lie?

Steam never established? > Steam China at the request of your government and the restrictions imposed.

So you use an open source tool to bypass your governments restrictions and the service provided by Perfect World.

Maybe that tool messes with images.

emmmm
It's hard to explain to you the relationship between Steam and Steam China, so please allow me to answer in Chinese once again

蒸汽平台和Steam仅账号数据相同，如果你尝试向Steam客服询问蒸汽平台方面的问题，他会让你询问蒸汽平台客服，反之亦然
Valve并没有在中国设立公司，所以政府无权直接管理它(但是实际上仍然受到政府管理，比如2020年政府要求Steam下架了《瘟疫公司》)
还有那个开源项目采用的是本地反代，Steam获取到的仍然是我的真实IP地址

Steam China is managed by Perfect World (hence no Valve presence) with all the restrictions imposed by the Chinese government or to put it another way - It's a version of Steam exclusive to those living in mainland China that only sells games that have been properly licensed by the Chinese government without community features.

You on the other hand use an open source tool to bypass the restrictions while ignoring Steam Global is banned in China for your own convenience after all.

I think I already mentioned the fact that Steam Global is not banned in China
In addition, I hope you can understand a little bit about the principle of that open source tool

According to the article Steam Global is banned in China and there has been no update with regard to whether the restriction been lifted. It would be global news after all.

You could always link the article unbanning Steam Global or that you can access Steam Global legally rather than simply say you can. You did after all bring law into the thread or rather restrictions of the law.

Secondly that open source tool allows you bypass community features you are restricted from accessing (It's a version of Steam exclusive to those living in mainland China that only sells games that have been properly licensed by the Chinese government without community features).

This goes back to a valid point i made - maybe the tool messes with images you should not be viewing.

In fact, you should try testing this yourself in a Chinese network environment and ask more people who live in mainland China

Dude. ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ why do you keep repeating the same thing?

At no point has he said anything about using a 3rd party tool. He has made it ABUNDANTLY clear he's talking about using regular old steam through the internet normally. So why are you treating him as though everything he's been saying is a lie?

More importantly, why do you care? ♥♥♥♥ china. If this dude wants to bypass steam region locking to get access to something china is blocking, why the ♥♥♥♥ do you care? ♥♥♥♥ china.
