Bungie was awarded $63k, but most importantly won under the argument that reverse engineering Destiny 2 violated their copyright.
Reverse engineering has historically being protected under US law, with the DMCA making exceptions to allow it for interoperability.
This could signal that any form of reverse engineering, even clean room reverse engineering, could be deemed illegal and punished as a copyright violation.

Aimbots should not be seen as "reverse engineering a product." Reverse engineering has some morally acceptable reasons. Such as designing parts for repairs to a product that you purchased but the own has overpriced repair fees.
Aimbots are more akin to unleveling a playing field in order to win outside the rules of a game. If this was track and field, the cheater would be running downhill. If this was poker, they'd get to see their opponents' hands.
