Wastegate Actuator Valve

My mechanic said that my waste gate actucator valve was stuck closed. He said it would not hurt anything as long as I did not drive in high altitudes. Is this true or should I get it replaced?

Not sure about the high altitude part but otherwise you will be just fine.
Many people disable the wastegate on purpose.
