    that pisses me off, all blizzard are trying to do is make the game fair for everyone, and these guilty have to know everything f.uckers whinge that someone is looking at their programs and websites.

    i really dont care if it does look at them. its all only shit and entertainment. and a company like blizzard would NOT want to stake their reputation on something as stupid as selling phone or email lists becuase of their so called spyware, nor would they need to know if people are visiting cirtain sites other than to see wether people are botting.

    WD Blizzard i say, for having the balls to do something.

    Agreed, we have the right to know exactly what info they are extracting from us, but its better they tell us, and we enjoy the game "botless"

    like i said, i dont think they need to tell us for the fact of what they are risking by taking information that we dont want to tell them...anal pron sites (coco) or bit torrents and such but WHY would they stake their reputation as the probably the biggest and best games producers IN the world because they want to steal information through so called spy ware. i mean...really don't we trust anyone anymore?

    Hold up... every anti-hacking software that is attached to a game does this...

    Steam, anyone?

    Why attack Blizzard for doing exactly what they should be doing to keep the game from becoming unfair to those that are paying for it.

    While I'm fine with the concept of Blizzard employing anti-hacking measures, what exactly is the point of logging what Webpages you have open? That makes me uneasy. Accessing the PGP component of email also falls in that category.
