Isnt that like literal spyware+malware lol? Also Riot is owned by Chinese which means they will gather data and spy on people 100% lmao.

>Can't even code one functional client during the entire lifespan of their game
>DUDE JUST TRUST THEM WITH KERNEL ACCESS 100% OF THE TIME
If you install this shit in your computer, you're a retard.

Didn't Punkbuster do the same thing?

cringe disk names
Elijah Lopez
Yea, so its nothing new. Zoomers just dont know about it and create fake outrage
Juan Smith

Nicholas Gonzalez
This
>naming your disks
Evan Howard
If it's true that it doesn't collect any information then no it's not spyware and it's not malware according to google
>software that is specifically designed to disrupt, damage, or gain unauthorized access to a computer system.

>believe us we dont collect any information!
>yeah guys why would a majority chinese owned company lie about tracking information on their spyware
Chase Sanders
Every single anti cheat does the same.

This is just what happens when you install non-free software on your non-free botnet OS.

No. Programs having their support applications autorun on boot has been around for literally decades and is in no way "literal spyware+malware". DRM has been doing this for well over a decade. Your retarded ass just didn't know about it because you know fuck all about computers and everything you are ignorant about doesn't automatically become "literal spyware+malware".

Chang WILL be controlling damage in this thread, watch out, anyone who mentions CSGO or Valve is an official certified RIOT shill.
Austin Russell
>beat me to it
ggwp
Cooper Gray
Can't we all just hold hands and say that both Riot and Valve are scumfags when it comes to your data?
Lucas Baker
>These are the people you're supposed to trust
This is not even about some "OMG THEY'RE SELLING YOUR INFO TO THE CHINESE!", it's "they're so fucking incompetent this will be exploited eventually by someone and they will have free reign because you gave them kernel access".

if you are outraged by this while also running windows 10 you are a complete retard
Joseph Brooks
I realized this as soon as said it required a restart. Too apathetic because I only boot to game anyway.
Bentley Bailey
Unironically one of the reasons I use consoles. Say what you want but in this aspect PC loses. Sure are you sending information? Yes, you have to for multiplayer, but it’s inane shit. The rest of the shit is locked down and consistent. Even if they had access all they’d get is useless shit about video games. Unlike a computer which contains important and private information that I don’t want Chinese to have.
Thomas Rodriguez
Everyone is scumbags about your data. Your phone company. Your bank. Your credit card provider. They all "spy" on you. Big data is big business these days and almost nothing about you is legally protected private information and the stuff that is legally protected private information they really just have to make sure they carefully anonymize before sharing. All companies have to do is disclose they are going to share you data in those big contracts, EULA, etc. that nobody every reads.

First time I've actually seen gameplay of this garbage and wow was I completely unsurprised.
Why does anyone play this? Looks like a fucking shitty F2P Chinese knock-off.
Inb4
>because it is one
Kayden Reed
I wonder if you can still get banned for having ANY TAB OPEN WITH THE WORDS CHEAT ENGINE ON IT. Like, holy fuck. If you even mentioned it in discord with the game running Riot's retarded anti-cheat system just fucked your shit.
Nolan Kelly
>we fixed it
>it was just a bug
>sorry we got caught
>all is well
>ok
Justin Brown
you better believe it is scanning and sending MD5s of your running shit. hashed? dunno.
Luis Evans
Reminds me from some shitty sonic fangame that did same shit except that game closed or spawned unkillable ghosts.
Isaiah Butler
yeah instead of writing it to disk it prob just sends it straight over the network to chen
Josiah Collins
JUST SHUT UP AND ACCEPT THE SPYWARE. YOU DON'T HAVE RIGHTS OR PRIVACY, SO JUST GIVE US THE INFO
Christopher Roberts
thanks for this, only played the game a little bit but I uninstalled it now. It's funny how they are trying to use the excuse of catching cheaters but there are already cheaters in the game, bunch of fucking scum
Juan Ramirez
I don't get the problem, Riot is a big company so they wouldn't do anything bad with this because it would be a big scandal that would hurt their business.
Jason Gutierrez
why do you even care
do you guys actually play these games? or any nu-game that has this pozzed shit in it?
