Game companies literally think they have the right to own your machine. This is the kind of garbage they force gamers to install on their machines: https://www.theregister.com/2016/09/23/capcom_street_fighter... https://mobile.twitter.com/TheWack0lian/status/7793978407622... Their software also takes screen shots, walks the file system, scans people's processes... Any similarities to malware may or may not be mere coincidences. They're also known for false positives: banning people for receiving special strings via text message, unknowingly installing mods with hacks bundled in or due to the presence of development tools such as debuggers or even virtual machines. Good luck trying to reverse such a ban, the entire gaming community has already been conditioned to accept any decision as final and to even defend this practice. When coupled with DRM, this essentially means your license to play the game has been revoked with no refunds. |
