Warning for people downloading cheats!
When you download a cheat to your pc, you are essentially infecting yourself with malware, and making everyone on your network victims to data theft. Think about your friends and family's privacy...

i would love to agree with this but it's pretty false. So as one that strives for truthfulness and honesty I can't. There are some people who try just to infect your pc to gather information, however must hacks/cheats are safe if you know how to scan and what is actually safe as most of them come up on anti-virus naturally. Anyone whos been in PC gaming knows all about hacks/hackers as it's been part of the community for a LONG time pretty much ever since PC gaming was a thing.
Same goes for pirated games. Majority of them are actually legit, just requires a small portion of research and knowing what your looking at to make sure your not infected with virus's and malware.
I can't go further into detail simply because I'm sure at one point in my deep dive it would be against the ToS.
I'm going to have to Agree with both of you. Yes some are just as infected as Discord, while others are as clean as Notepad.
In the long run though, they always get their $$$ worth, so your still taking a loss.

I don't even think the ones you pay monthly subscriptions too are safe. SO I definitely disagree. I liked your posts jungle, but now you just sound like someone who was a victim themselves. And I wouldn't be so quick to blame discord buddy... You need to start looking elsewhere on your pc. You got your moneys worth alright, or got what you paid for ...lmao.
And as I said this goes for the bootleg games you think are safe to use also. Even if noone is stealing data from you, they screwing with your pc's performance.
Don't install any bootleg or shady software period, whether it has to do with games or not, and you will have less problems. Not only cyber criminals and malicous gamers are out to get you, but lots of vigilantes would just want to ruin your experience as well.

How would you know if you are infected with a virus or not? I guess we know why your apex crashes....lmao...
Security experts like Joanna Rutkowska the creater of Qubes-OS, the OS Ed Snowden recommends, says herself its even impossible for experts to know when they are compromised. The heads of DOD cybersecurity divisions say you must assume you are compromised. Thats how you do it security in 2019. The DOD themselves assumes they are compromised!
I hate to say it, but most IT professionals are clueless. If you are visiting hacker sites, or a wannabe hacker yourself using hacker software. Assume you are severely compromised!
I assume this now about the both of you.
