I don't think steam is doing that the government of vietnam isn't claiming they are banning steam for that reason. What is happening is that the government of vietnam is actively hurting their domestic video game developers because they have instituted onerous "government scrutiny" whereas if you want to publish on Steam it costs like $150 and an email address.

The problem solely lies with the Vietnamese government, as a self-inflicted problem, no where else.
