A company being able to prevent people from doing what they want with software they paid for on their own device by using copyright law is in fact not good news at all.
Its not a sentence for hacking or something like that. Cheat software usually runs entirely on your device, the fact that its an online game isnt even part of the case from what i can see.
This line of legal logic can and will totally be used to do evil things like banning modding or local cheating.
Cheating just needs to be accepted as part of reality in games. The solution is better server side checks and faster bans, not interfering with peoples freedom to do what they want with their machine.
Basically this just gives game companies a pass to behave like book/movie companies with DRM. Suing anyone that enables people to decrypt or modify the files that they paid for.

This happens basically every month or so. They break it, we fix it. For me newpipe and yt-dlp havent even stopped working despite not updating anything.
