      I suppose they would only find out when the account is still in use after 130 years.

      Or if they cared to check payment details and such.

      I can’t be arsed to read the ToS again, but is it also forbidden to just share an account between several people?

      My brother and I opened up that account six years ago and except for the times I forgot to turn my internet off to not be kicked out of games while my brother plays one we never had problems.

      Also whether or not those TOS are legally enforceable in every single country Valve operates in.
