Region locks were added for a reason, then play locks afterwards, so continuously exploiting this (bad) decision from Steam might put your account in risk... Afaik, seems that CIS/RU store is the only that have this lock.

I had a game from Brazil before that was run-locked, that's why I'm asking. I think SEA games don't have run-locks yet, but I'm not sure anymore.

I know most games on Steam had a region lock for quite some time, but you could always activate them with a VPN.
Now more and more games also have a run lock, so you can't even start them without a VPN, even after activation.
I really don't want runlocked games in my library, but how do I know which games are run-locked and which aren't?
It seems like all Russian games are now run-locked, is that true?
If so, are there cheap regions with only region locks but without run locks?
