    If a family member gets banned for cheating while playing your copy of a game, you (the game owner) will also be banned in that game

    Hm… so if you don’t trust your kids to not do dumb things in games you also play then don’t share them

      As much as i don’t really like this there would have been a loophole where you use fake temporary family members to continue cheating.

      Back in the day some games also banned your homes external ip address which would have a similar effect.

        Imagine moving to a new place and being banned because the last person who lived there cheated in the specific game you play lol.

          Ip address isn’t tied to the house, but the subscriber.

          But most ISP don’t have static Ip for private customers, so you experience just suddenly being banned because you received an Ip address someone got banned.
