    Pay hackers to make you invisible in a game, only to be made extra-visible irl by other hackers…

    I didn’t even know cheat “services” was a thing. Its kinda hard to feel bad for the victims though if they were cheaters.

      Oh man. Cheaters in games pay monthly to get better cheats. For those cheats they get updates and customer support. Those customer supports are claimed to be better than the customer support of the actual games. Also there are forums for bugs and reporting when the cheat doesn’t work or the cheat might be detected. It is completely wild to think how far people will pay to win in game they “like”.

      Oh and then there is the special hardware (DMA) cheats.

        Thats wild. You’d think it would be easy for companies to sue or shutdown those, but I guess not!
