In other news, BlizzCon is ten days away. Shame this information had to come out beforehand. -- Scaper-X |

This wouldn't be a suprise if most people read the Eula, or ToS. It clearly states it in there.

More propoganda for the drooling buffoon crowd...
Blizzard is watching! - BSTRhino For the second time, Blizzard Entertainment has been caught red-handed entangling spyware into one of their games! Created by Blizzard, the most popular MMORPG in existence World of WarCraft has been reverse-engineered by RootKit staff member Greg Hoglund and found to run a program called The Warden. The Warden is a program created by Blizzard to scan the programs running on your computer for any open hack or cheating programs. Some say that the word spyware is taking an extreme spin on the anti-piracy measure, but Hoglund responds: Anyone who played Diablo II would perfectly understand WHY. LOL If you aren't running a hack, then you have no reason to be worried about what the data miner is grabbing from your processes list. It looks for known hacks, not "porn screensaver #er5346". So why all the pants pissing? Last edited by SOT; Oct 20, 2005 at 06:24 AM // 06:24.. |
