Radically Different Anti-RMT Suggestion Part 1 of 4

[SCUBA_Instr]

Hi Delsus,

The legal community will need to decide if bot owners' modification of packets,
via code injection, dll injection, etc, violates copyrights. It's my opinion that
they are, but my opinion does not count. The SIIA and BSA
legal experts can advise the Square Enix board of directors if they have
jurisdiction in these matters. Thus, Square Enix leadership, should, at the
very least, confer with SIIA and BSA.

I didn't know, until you told me, that there's a way to lengthen forum messages.

Bots as in autonomously performing commands can be made as simply as capturing signals sent from a keyboard and writing a script to perform actions, with the very commands the keyboard sends there is no injection required, just essentially a program using the keyboard, so no form of infringement. Even actual hackers who are under the scenery etc they actual user are just using a program that exploits the code. The user is not violating any form of intellectual property but the coder who wrote the program could be. I would however put it more around computer misuse which (in the UK at least) is based around hacking and illegally decompiling software with the intention of exploiting said software.
