as mentioned before. this will set precedent for trials to follow. whoever wins will be able to point and say 'see, we already won this fight once'.
Does curts in Germany care about precedens? Its not USA, you know...

I find it highly unlikely that Blizzard will use over half a million euros to stop the sale of ONE bot in just ONE country, especially considering Germany makes up such a small fraction of overall players world wide. The only way they'd do this is if they were absolutely certain they were going to win and they'd get it back.
So far bossland has won nothing and this is not good in itself
Sounds like the courts are yet to decide who will win
But reading over corporate laws and copyright laws and computer laws botting is not good for wow as user information is stolen by password stealers and gold sellers use password stealers and other wow players accounts in junction with bots to make in game gold to sell for real money
Blizzard would be using a lot of different laws in order to win this case and bring it to a win
I myself do not bot and I find game play good with out it I do hard-core raiding and some PvP I was always taught not to be lazy in life what is sad is that there are people here making a living off botting and when the bot does truly die they will be screwed big time
I do bet that blizzard will win this for sure and take out bots for good even into project titan when they win against Bossland they are going for the next big company and that will be short lived as it has been proven in two country's USA and Germany my understanding is the other one is located in China
Law is rather interesting when you start to read about it in general or study it for a career or experience it as such and I can't really see Bossland winning at all reason is this what gives a person the right to make money off someone's work this is one reason why Bossland will not win plus he is supporting hacking of computers even though that may not be his intent but it is happening because of his bot he makes... No court will support this nor should it and none has in the past from my readings
What I do find really sad is Bossland will end up broke over a program and I bet he was given a chance to stop the develop of it by blizzard
Also users like ourselves are protected as well because of privacy reasons this is why blizzard does not do mass banning I do think how ever they are able to scan the memory just like a virus scanner does to see if something is attached to it and this is not against the laws at all in any country
Plus when your talking about server and client software the server talks back to your software as it has been given permission already also I do think blizzard has hidden the code well in the client software where it can not be read unless you do know what your looking for there was a bot virus network some years ago where it took 8 antivirus guys to figure out 50 ip addresses in the code and that took 3 years to get all 50 it was encrypted right out though the code of the .exe many top programs use this and it is not very large at all very complex and very effective way of protecting a code you do not want people to find out information or apart of some code that helps you hide something in your code it was done by F-Prot
So far bossland has won nothing and this is not good in itself

Germany over covers Germany, so they can say, "dont sell it to people in Germany" but they dont care about people from else where.
Nope. The decision states that bossland is forbidden so sell a bot in germany but the court also ruled that in the whole EU bossland is no longer allowed to advertise HB as a wow bot.
It seams Blizz payed the bill![]()
