While the eternal struggle in Destiny 2 is between the light and the dark, in the real world Bungie is up against the cheaters… only in this case the light has won for a damn good time. The company has won a tough legal battle against a hacker that has been resolved with a multi-million dollar fine
the legal process started in 2021. Bungie’s mission was to end one of the most used cheats in Destiny 2. Mihai Claudiu-Florentin is responsible for distribute this software among the most corrupt guardians. Justice has found him guilty of copyright infringement, breach of contract and violating the Copyright Law and the Washington Consumer Protection Act, as reported by the media TheGamePost
The cheat distributor is obligated to indemnify Bungie in the amount of $12,059,912.98. Rounding up, it’s $12 million. This figure includes $11,696,000 in statutory damages, which is $2,000 for each of the 5,848 downloads of the software.
It is not the first time that Bungie intercedes for Destiny 2 at a legal level to get rid of both cheetos distributors and cheaters. And in previous cases she also emerged victorious in the legal process. Finally, the company presented a few hours ago the “Season of the Deep“(May 23) Destiny 2a new adventure that will take us (presumably) to the planet Titan and that will bring back the character Sloane, who we thought was dead.
