you don't really seem like a retired dev, mr. anonymous.

And no, existance of TOS does not change anything. TOS doesn't magically make illegal things legal.

Have you ever read any licence agreement from MS/Google/Apple/etc? They can do with your personal data pretty much anything they want (and screenshots would be the least of the concerns...). (Although I'm myself very keen on privacy, that's why I'm trying to help arriving at a design which is acceptable from this viewpoint, too.)

That's because he, she, or it isn't. They are a professional spammer just trolling and typing nonsense to work people up. 

The TOS isn't there to protect us legally. I'm very well aware that TOS and EULA's often don't hold up in court. The TOS is purely there to alert users of what's going on and guess what, it's working. The things described in the TOS are the only things being done on your computer. We're not hiding anything else. We can't access data on your computer. If you don't agree with this approach that is VERY similar to PunkBuster then feel free to uninstall.

People are ungodly concerned with "privacy". If you're that paranoid, don't own electronic devices and if you do wish to own them, don't put any personal information out. Get the fuck off Facebook and any other social medium.

Facts are that the screenshots aren't public in any way. They are not transmitted to the auth server, even temporarily. Sure, someone can hack in and intercept the transmission but come on, if someone is that good, wouldn't they be spending their time doing something worthwhile rather than stealing some Polish/Brazilian screenshot of him watching YouTube?

ArmyAntiCheat, why would a dev, such as you claim to be, code hacks for a game he helped make? Despite your thoughts of how horrible and violating we are, we're actually pretty nice and democratic. We welcome anybody that wants to help. If you can contribute something that makes these "privacy invading" screenshots obsolete, well, doesn't that make everybody happy? This offer is extended to anyone that knows UScript, Visual Studio or just "proper" security communication to go through Assist's RealBasic code and make things better.

the basic understanding of all of this info is - If you do not agree with the TOS, then simply decline it, uninstall any Assist downloads, and continue on with life.

im not trying to sound rude, but that is pretty simple

Hey guys,

First i would like to thank you all for bringing the assist software back online!

Second i would like to ask something about a bit of a problem after updating to 7.48.
My Assist is working like it should but when i join a server assist is crashing and kicking me from the game with; 'slot Closed'.

I have reinstalled the whole assist software (replace libs and main program with new downloaded data) but it didnt work.

Do i need to delete the Armyops files to in the c:/documents and settings/.... folder ?

Thanks

if you are using Windows 8, we will fix it in the next hours (probably missing file on our end sry)

Perfect, thanks mate was thinking it was something with my laptop but yes I have windows 8 .

Rob, that's a minor difference. PB publicizes screenshots, we don't.

I don't care that much if screenshots of my gameplay getting public.
But making screenshots of any private stuff known to anyone is not what I wanna have.

A minor difference, are you kidding me now?
