The publisher of the game (and not Valve) can control when VAC is activated within the server signature, and it's a relatively small change to make. It would require a change and an update to do.

This will have an upside of letting people experiment with on-line sound mods, but have the down-side of allowing client code to be altered, i.e. people could possibly cheat in other ways.

While this isn't of course ideal, it's a trade-off between what's best in the short-term vs long-term, and with a new title it's important to help establish MP communities in any way you can, i.e. I think it's worth it for now.

Cheers!
