I'll drop a last post here, just for the trolls with their childish "porn" remarks etc. ;-)
Note that this was the primary point of the original post:
"Playing on P99 should come with a warning of P99 forcing you to download their DLL injection file called "dsetup.dll"."
No one has said anything about Project 1999 not being good, nor their rules not being fair, etc. The whole point was that this sort of invasive surveillance should always be advertised, because yes, it is illegal, very much so actually.
Stating in advance that it is being done makes it less illegal, in some countries at least. The main point still being though, that why not state it, as that in itself should make for less rule-breaking, thus less time spent monitoring rule-violations, fewer people actually breaking rules, etc.
In Europe it's called the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), where one'll find in article 13-14 that one must clearly inform about every kind of surveillance.
No matter where a server/service is based, it can be found that it can be regulated through GDPR. It can also be found, that even with clear notification, said surveillance is still illegal.
That said, "DLL injections" in particular can often in and of themselves violate the Council of Europe's Cybercrime Convention, which e.g. the US has also joined. E.g. as we saw with the Sony BMG copy protection rootkit scandal back in 2005.
Well, I'm out then. Have fun all ;-)
