Retired at 45, are you?

for those that think themselves in the know, what do you think WOW does? hmmm?

this is no different than what blizzard does (and a few more i would wager, they just dont say), might want to check your files if you play wow, you might be surprised.

can you smell that?!!...............there is nothing quite like it.....................the smell of troll in the morning............i love that smell.

Duo: The company asks your permission for everything in the EULA. If you want to give them permission to snoop, then agree. If not, then dont play, simple as that. I just find it funny that everyone is comparing this to a virus. Though it may have similaritys, people dont usually ask for your permission to install a virus on your computer. " Hey, can I install a trojan on your Comp?." 
You dont really here that. The funny thing is, everyone is worried about how this EULA states that they want the right to snoop if they see a reason to. Does anyone realize that every mmorpg has access to your IP Address. If someone really wanted to screw up your computer, thats there point of entry friends. Dont like it dont play.

PS: Ive never even played this game, just dont like people complaining about stuff that they have complete control of. And big ups to CT. They did a great job of listening to there players and changing the EULA to make everyone more comfortable. Great going.

wow, theres alot of fail in this thread

You know, I don't think you can call it a virus if it

1. explains exactly what it will do

2. you approve of it's actions by pressing accept

 

I assure you they have no intention of stealing your porn, or even personal information, only what data is related to cheating and game files.

There are a LOT of EULA's out there that are far worse, and for some of the most popular game titles.

pretty much all games do this. even wow does it. i remember a big stink about it a while back cuz a program in WoW sends blizz a list of every program you have running.

Just because you sign an EULA allowing them to scan your hard drive doesn't mean they can do anything they want with the information. The privacy laws still apply. Oh and read the EULA that comes with your OS. That thing is insane.
