Well my feeling on this would be same as my feeling on wiretapping. If they wiretap you, and you are doing nothing wrong than there is no problem is there. I feel pretty safe saying jack-booted thugs are not going to kick down my door and steal my plats. I hate slippery-slope arguments. Next thing you know they will be using this code to break into my bank accounts lulz!

This is all fine and dandy but how does everyone feel giving up there personal privacy of there own computer running an injected DLL that they have no real idea what its looking at or for.
IMHO this could be a potential for legal privacy concerns or even illegal wiretapping. If you value your financial and other personal information I wouldn't run these dll's without some kind of privacy statement or a legal binding contract that holds them responsible for potential malicious intent.
This is a huge personal security and or legal nightmare. You can say "well then don't play" but the truth is I can't trust this code thats getting executed and neither should you and the fact that it wasn't explained in detail in the release notes and the source isn't offered makes it border line coercion.
While this might have caught cheaters i think this was the total wrong approach to take and frankly irresponsible from a computer security stand point.
