So. If you try to read what's in your local mem space, it will start a logging process? Or is it modify only?
Every process is allotted a portion of memory it can use at runtime. This process cannot access the memory space of any other process by virtue of the process control board unless specifically allowed to do so. When you ask can "you" read, do you mean you as a user accessing the memory? It's definitely possible to grab the data in memory, but from what I've seen, a number of games, usually MMOs, have code built in that detects if you access its process memory and will kick you. This is implemented to help combat botting and I know ArcheAge had something like this in place.
