Some people on the thread (most of whom did not read the article) are reacting like people's rights are being violated here. It's the other way around. There's been a lot of commotion lately about how online games are being ruined by cheats and aimbots. It's impossible for game makers to keep up. It should be illegal to make or distribute cheats for online games for the same reason it should be illegal to shit in a water fountain: you're not just modifying your stuff, you're ruining it for everybody else.

- a_plastic_bag 10y agoThe way I see it, this looks more like an attempt by the video game industry to pass the cost of preventing cheating to the taxpayers.
- wav-part 10y agoWow this will give even non-libertarians a pause.
- SixSigma 10y agoThis law makes it illegal to create arseholes that can shit in water fountains. Not shitting in water fountains.
