Looks like you shouldn't be browsing Steam at school kids.

Against ToS to use Steam while on a VPN apparently. Oh well, looks like I'll have to resort to other places for my daily dose of Counter-Strike memes to pass english class now.

i thought the wording of the SSA said that you can't use a VPN for the purpose of concealing/hiding your actual location.

For example if you are in one country.. using a VPN from another country... but using a school computer that is very likely in the same town/city you live in is hardly doing that.

Section 3-A. Payment Authorization

...

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, Valve may terminate your access to your Account.

i assume you're meaning that section of the SSA and if you read the whole thing in context it doesn't seem to imply what you are suggesting.

A great way to pass classes is to participate and learn. Try that!

Wuh... ok... (wasn't actually expecting such a high quality response)
