probably illegal in the EU https://www.wired.com/story/kernel-a...lnerabilities/ talks about the levels of anti-cheats particularly Black Desert had a very low level anti-cheat program in regards the the windows operating system this is a particularly interesting issue since there's a set of ISOs being passed around that have what appear to be MQ2 installation files in the 5th iso that may or may not be getting hooked during the install process and infecting any user who uses to exploit their computer Typically anti-cheat software is looking to stop the cheat application from gaining access to the game in question and detecting it once it does and does not normally look outside itself to find open windows. https://www.washingtonpost.com/techn...ustice-policy/ cites that if this is being done in good faith for security research and in this case good faith catching cheat software that is installed with or with out the players permission these are honest questions though about what is done once they are looking outside the game and are they circumventing any security measures built into windows with either social engineering or code. | |||

if you've ever done any programming in windows and messed with the winAPI you'd know how easy it is to read window titles from any application
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/wi...getwindowtexta and if you want to call that spyware, i sure hope you don't run OBS, because it also enumerates your open windows and grabs the titles (so you can use it to automatically capture a window based on title) overall it's a simple and low effort way to prevent running the most common cheat applications (or problematic applications). I got a scary message one time when I opened p99 and then realized I had WinDBG running from analyzing a crash dump and I guess it was on their 'no no list'. I closed it and logged on no problem after. their dll isn't stopping anyone from running cheats that they don't know about - so the main benefit is this keeps you from accidentally logging on and getting permabanned if you left something they don't like running on accident. I consider that a benefit. if you are really that scared close your porn tabs before you run the game | ||

Anyway the reason I bring it up is because sometime after that occurred I called you gay on the forums and you perma banned all my in game accounts for it even linking IPs to other accounts banning my families accounts. Luckily Rogean unbanned my accounts after you yourself got banned. Point being it's funny to hear you say this when you were a power obsessed GM who unfairly banned players on multiple occasions including in my case accounts I had merely logged into for calling you gay on forums. So clearly you yourself felt I was interesting enough to punish by using this collected data, in my case IP information, so why wouldn't you or someone like you use the additional computer information when someone calls you gay or worse and you want to punish them maybe beyond the game world? After all, I broke a forum rule on the forums but you applied that to game accounts some of which weren't even mine. I don't think your statements are very trustworthy but maybe I'm wrong. By the way I never got to apologize for that, I'm sorry, it was inappropriate to call you gay and was insulting to gay people too to use this as a slur. | ||||||
