Valve now tracking CS2 players who use controversial Snap Tap devices, but no bans yet

Valve will now be keeping a close eye on those who use SnapTap in Counter-Strike 2 after an update for the shooter went live today. For those currently giving the controversial feature a go in CS2, fear not—Valve isn’t dishing out bans yet.

Today’s CS2 update includes several map changes and other miscellaneous bugfixes as well as an important change to tagging effects, but interest was piqued after a discovery was made by dataminer Gabe Follower on X (formerly Twitter). Valve’s added a few strings to the backend containing SnapTap, specifically “SnapTapStats” and “SnapTapDetection,” likely to begin tracking those who use the keyboard feature.
