Activision is taking legal action against the creators of well-known Call of Duty hacks that have caused some fans to quit playing.
The hacks allow users to kick players, crash servers, and ensure all shots hit opponents, violating terms of service.
Activision is seeking monetary compensation and punitive action, potentially amounting to millions of dollars, against the creators and resellers of the hacks.
Cheating in Call of Duty has been a persistent issue, with previous measures like shadowbanning proving ineffective in combating the toxic behavior within the community.
