VAC Ban through family sharing?
So, i was vac banned in cs go 1 year ago. I also gifted a new cs go to my cousin on steam, but i heard that if i family share my games to him he will get banned on cs go. Is this true?

Family sharing is where you let the person access your library, not gifting games. You CAN get VAC banned aswell if the person you are family sharing with gets VAC banned.

If you are using Family Sharing then it's likely. However, gifting a game isn't family sharing and considering it's been over a year and it hasn't happened I'd say no.

But i will family share other games. It's completely safe then

No wonder you got banned!
He has his own copy of CS:GO so he is on it's own. You status will not have any effect on him.

As usual, if he cheats in any VAC game borrowed from you through Family Library Sharing, both of you will get a VAC ban and that game will not ever be shareable from your account.
