Looks like Valve takes piracy very seriously, now they just need to update VAC!!!

Valve disabled an additional 30,000 Steam user accounts that were found "to illegally gain access to Valve games without a valid purchase".

Today Valve disabled more than 30,000 Steam accounts which had been used to try to illegally gain access to Valve games without a valid purchase. Here's the quote for non-Steam forum members.

Valve takes such activities seriously and reserves the right to disable Steam accounts engaging in piracy, cheating, illegal activities, or any other activity in violation of the Steam Subscriber Agreement. The accounts that are disabled today will not be reactivated. - Erik Johnson (Valve)

It looks like somebody is getting a lump of coal this Christmas.
