Is it possible to get banned for giving your Steam account to a friend to play? For example, in Dota 2.

Recently, I wondered if my Steam account could be banned if I gave it to a friend so he could play Dota 2. I heard that this might violate the rules, and now I’m worried that this could cause issues with accessing my games. I’m not sure how to proceed correctly to avoid a ban and maintain access to my account.

Yes, transferring a Steam account to another person violates the service’s terms of use, and you may get banned for it.
