Steam DLC unlocker SmokeAPI is now being blocked by Valve and could result in a VAC ban or locked account. (sh.itjust.works)

Looks like CreamAPI is not affected. Looks like a Paradox games fan's worst nightmare.

Link to change in latest Steam client update.

Yeah seriously, if you're pirating the DLC you might as well pirate the entire game

Not if you want to use the steam workshop without buying the DLC.

Aren't there external Workshop downloaders floating around, or has Valve closed that gap?

Sure those exist, but is there anything like a mod manager that works for those sites? Imagine having to manually manage your mods/addons for a game like Cities Skylines. When I played, I had well over 1000 assets installed. There's simply no way that would work.
