In a round-a-bout sort of way, he is right. Cheaters had ShowEQ, now P99 devs have ShowPC. I don't know enough about security to know if they can truly see what has been touted, but it wouldn't surprise me. Hackers can access information with far less of a gateway than an actual file you willingly download and run for an extended amount of time, ie; anytime you're playing EQ.

It comes down to this. To catch the cheaters, this sort of invasion was necessary. Would you rather have this method and not have cheaters, or lose the invasion and know that cheaters are in game? I personally don't have any worries about the Devs themselves doing anything with the information, it's other people that may gain access to your computer via the same pathway I'd be concerned about.
