I’m selling an old pc on Facebook marketplace and someone is offering me a trade for a steamdeck. I was wondering if there is such a thing as a hardware level ban on steamdecks? I know that consoles like the Xbox and PlayStation can get banned at a hardware level, so I want to know if this is possible before I get a used one from Facebook marketplace.
