True or false?

[P1P!]

I apologize for the post in case of being out of place
According to sources related to the team of wg latam they say that in this latest version of the game they added a spy file
Something that facilitates the detection of illegal mods
Is this true or just nonsense?
Also the person who commented this in a meeting mentioned that the developer Shaytan (ZJ) sent him a list of players of our clan that uses said mod
How reliable is the information of this person and how reliable is the privacy of ZJ users?

It is worth mentioning that this person according to him was some time a collaborator of ZJ and that there is mutual trust between both

I could not know less sorry, nevertheless after an extensive chat with a good friend which happen to be an international business lawyer an unexpected but actually important question raised. He simply asked me to answer the following question. 

Is it prohibited to USE illegal mods or to HAVE THEM ON YOUR CLIENT ?

After him, having mods on your client does in ANY case mean that you have used them during Pub battles, maybe you just use mods with your friends on the training ground in order to see and or learn new tactics, which is NOT MENTIONED NOR PROHIBITED BY WG RULES.

So banning you just because you have illegal mods on your game client is totally illegal for the simple reason that “HAVING THEM” does not prove by any means that you have “USED” them. Only a factual prove of infringement towards game rules justifies banning. 

This makes total sense, Most mods have an ON and Off function, so WG has to be able to prove that you have USED illegal mods during public play in order to benefit of unfair superiority. 

It’s not because you have a car able to go over 200 km/h that you will be fined just for the fact of owing one. Only if you are caught driving over the limit you can be fined (providing irréfutable prove of the infringement).

Furthermore he thanked me and told me that he will investigate the matter more in depth, as for him the whole spiel looks like a load of cash to collect from Cyprus….

Happy Hunting… 😉

WG wants you to think they have a spy program. They will not deny it because it’s free propoganda. I am intersted in….

Replay or it didn’t happen !

(You can PM me if you are shy).

Now the question is….. do they?

What would that spy do? It cannot collect data from your PC about installed files or programs running. That is illegal. Do you think a company as large as WG would risk breaking international laws? They have even addressed that in a round-about way saying they are aware that data collection needs changes in domestic laws. The thought that they might only target countries that they CAN detect data would involve multiple game client versions.

Basicly it is this…….. maybe they do….. or maybe they don’t……. but trust me when I say that there are many people playing the game that would notice if that happened……….. wow…… Instant ammo-rack for WG. Buy popcorn and beer coz it will be entertaining.

This rumor has been floating around for a while. It’s a lot of “he said / she said”. No-one has shown proof and no-one has denied it. Is it true? I dunno….. don’t even care. Done is done. Only thing I am pretty sure about is that ZJ mods seem to be detectable. I don’t use them.

” Do you think a company as large as WG would risk breaking international laws? “…..lol….for real….like they give a fuck about anybody else’s laws when their fellow countrymen go round using radioactive poisons and nerve agents just for basically saying “you’re all a bunch of cunts….I’m off elsewhere”….riiiiight…lol sry bro….

Errrrr…. I can’t post where and HOW this was said to me…. please trust me……

WG specifically said that loading mods into the game client is how they see “use of illegal mods”. So….. if you have illegal mods installed in the game client…… that is using them and you are violating the EULA. It does not matter what battle mode you use. You may not have them installed.

I can agree that it COULD be better worded but it doesn’t really matter. You agreed to this……..

That’s pretty much everything. If not……… this……….

You agreed to that too.

I think your lawyer friend needs to think about this a bit.
