Grand Theft Auto V. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-45891126 he publisher of video game Grand Theft Auto V has been granted the right to search the homes of five people accused of making cheat software. The court order allowed Rockstar Games and its parent company, Take-Two Interactive, to search two properties in Melbourne, Australia, for evidence related to a cheat known as Infamous. The Australian federal court has also frozen the assets of the five, who have not yet filed a defence. The cheat went offline six months ago. It allowed players who paid about $40 (£30) to manipulate the gaming environment, generate virtual currency and use a "god mode" feature that makes players invincible. Under the court order, the five people, named as Christopher Anderson, Cyrus Lesser, Sfinktah, Koroush Anderson and Koroush Jeddian, are prevented from creating or using game cheats And they are allowed to withdraw only money for modest living expenses from their frozen accounts. Fortnite...https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-45876864 A YouTube gamer who posted videos of himself cheating at Fortnite is being sued by its developer Epic Games. Brandon Lucas has attracted 1.7 million subscribers to his Golden Modz channel, where he plays modified or hacked versions of Fortnite and other games. He also runs a website where he sells cheats, such as automatic aiming, for more than $200 (£150). "Defendants are cheaters. Nobody likes a cheater," Epic Games said in its legal filing. "Defendant Lucas not only cheats, he also promotes, advertises, and sells software that enables those who use it to cheat," the document states. One of the hacks available on Mr Lucas's website is aimbot, which lets players automatically target and kill enemies without having to aim their weapon. It is only available for the PC version of the game, but offers a significant competitive advantage to any player using the cheat. In Mr Lucas's latest YouTube video he "trolls default skins" - players who may be new and have yet to change their character's appearance. Several other videos in which he used the aimbot cheat have been removed from YouTube following a copyright complaint from Epic Games. Another YouTube gamer, Colton Conter, is also named in the legal filing. In the documents, Epic Games said the cheaters were "creating unauthorised derivative works of Fortnite by unlawfully modifying the game's code". Sweatnbullets, baldie and Hunter1948 3

Which is the reason for the frozen accounts. If no money was involved it is more likely it would have been no more than a cease and desist order. Pingfuzzboi 1 Awards
