    I prefer an implied eye roll.

    We'll just have to agree to disagree about the travesty that is SE scanning your processes. I sincerely doubt they are going to do anything shady with the info, and until I'm proven wrong, I'll continue to feel that way.

      Re: Why do you want to see what i do on my home computer?

      While I don't think S-E means "to do anything shady with the info", it would be nice if the company would tell us what they are doing.

      While I can speculate about "comparing processes with list of known hacking programs, if match, terminate FFXI" or other nonsense, the developers really should just let us know why POL.EXE is "reading" other processes--the cheat program makers would find out soon anyway, and those bunch definitely won't tell us normal folks.

      Keeping the purpose a secret is hardly a real security measure, while creating fear, doubt, and uncertainty with their customers. A bad move, all things considered.
      Bamboo shadows sweep the stars,
      yet not a mote of dust is stirred;
      Moonlight pierces the depths of the pond,
      leaving no trace in the water.

        Only with their customers who are inclined to worry about this sort of thing. The impression I'm getting from this thread and others is that a fair number of folks, equal in number, if not greater to (based on the responses) the number of folks who do have a problem with it aren't really experiencing that much fear, doubt and uncertainty.

          Word. I reserve those feelings for career choices, relationships, and artistic endeavors. There's barely room to be paranoid about my metal box of wires.

            Its not S.E im worried about with my information. Its the third party site they will be undoubtly giving the information to to scan for such things that relate to FFXI. Its what the 3rd party site does with all the other information.

              Hantz is a fully grown adult with, I'm sure, control over his own finances. And as such, he knows very well what he should and shouldn't be worried about.

              As for SE giving your information to some 3rd party who to misuse? Ha!
