Radars in Frontlines and Hunts - Any word from SE?

[KisaiTenshi]

If SE took screenshots of our desktops on a zone switch they would be in so much hot water legally it wouldn't even be funny. Running processes would be a different matter but would still require a ToS change. At least in Canada a opt-in as well because it's illegal to monitor those items here unless expressly agreed to or with a court order.

Have you ever read a game's ToS? They can do anything they want to your computer because you agreed to it during install. That means as long as you are running the game, the game can send any data inside the game window/process back to SE for quality/customer-service/technical reasons. As long as you can report a bug, you can also monitor a user.

What I'm saying is that is a tool SE can use, it doesn't mean that is the best tool. You don't use a hammer when you need a screwdriver so to say.
