I want to slap online cheaters upside the head and take their lunch money too, but this sounds a bit unhinged. It's just a game bro. If that's your punishment for teenagers using wallhax, I'd hate to see what your punishment would be for feminists, games journalists, people who rig elections, Communists, pedophiles, other assorted Hollywood degenerates, and the globalist banking cartel.
There are a lot of hackers in the former Soviet bloc too. I think it comes down to a few things: a) relatively high technical skill. Can't hack without this b) relatively low income. Honest work is more profitable in first-world countries. c) Low respect for international law ((())). Risk vs reward; doing this in the US is risky. A court will come fuck you like this. China DNGAF
This is basically an admission that Bungie can't deal with hax0rs via technical measures or even policing their own game and is hoping that some RL trolling works. If I were worried about cheaters in their game, I'd continue to be. Because they will keep going.
It’s interesting, it seems like it’s still not technically illegal to sell cheats, which is why Bungie (and other recent examples like riot suing Valorant cheat devs) needs to roll the “cheat selling” into other, larger claims like “fraud”.
I’m with you on the legal opposition to the sellers and banning the hackers, but what do you think about how they seem to be going even further, and suing individual cheat users for “fraud” (buying their game multiple times lol), and “harassment” (making jokes about them on twitter)? That seems too far to me.
Nice. It's not cutting their hands off or piking their heads like I prefer, but it's a start.

Actually maybe I'd like to see it.
Vlad Tepes was a pretty nice guy.
Also, most hackers ARE communists, either of the FOSS variety or the chink variety.
You’re right just because there are so many Chinese people.

These fucking cheaters are ontologically evil. I don't care what happens to them as long as it hurts. It's personal.
Harsh, but, meh, in their existence as cheaters they do derive their enjoyment solely through ruining the enjoyment of others, so I guess fair enough
