However, the platform recently found itself on the “banned” list again, raising concerns considering Discord was recently blocked in Russia.
There are currently three pages in the editor’s database, added on October 2 and 7, but their contents are not disclosed. We only know that the reason for blocking is prohibited content that needs to be removed.
If Valve does not comply with Roskomnadzor’s requirements, Steam risks being blocked, as happened with Discord and YouTube.
In this case, Russian users will lose access not only to purchasing new games, but also to already purchased projects in their library. However, it is worth noting that services often manage to respond to requests from regulators – this does not mean complete blocking.
