WoW anti-cheat program dubbed spyware

Some concern has arisen that it could be a lot more intrusive than that.

A thread most controversial, that’s what I want to start
Full of impassioned arguments, of posting from the heart
And for this stimulation all will be thankful to me
On come on everybody it won’t work if you agree
