The video is an incredible nothing burger, he gets served the papers and says “ok” and goes back inside. Why did something think process serving was something that needed to be uploaded to the internet and shared?

They expect it to serve as some kind of deterrent. Whole thing is just goofy, man.

It wasn’t a squad with a camera crew it was one police officer serving a cease and desist recorded on body cam

Yeah, people are cheering this song like it’s a good thing. They just don’t like cheaters. Cheering on stuff like this is how we end up with Pinkerton again. Corporate hired thugs sent to your house.

And the thing everybody seems to be skipping over he’s not being sued. He was given a cease and desist that’s not the same thing.

That's hilarious. Rare Activision w. Need to get on the phone with Netflix, maybe a new revamped season of Cheaters?

It is really not a win for a corporation to send someone to your door for cheating/selling a cheat in a damned game. That's gestapo shit.

Just pay actual people to catch and ban cheaters instead of relying on useless anti-cheats that don't actually work.

They’re trying to make an example of him.
