Blizzard Wins Warcraft Bot Payout

Blizzard have won their case against World of Warcraft 'bot' maker MDY Industries. The bot, known as Glider, controls players' characters, saving them from actually playing the game, and raking in in-game currency and experience while the players themselves could be away from the computer.

Blizzard were awarded $6m in damages. (Culture, Industry, PC, World of Warcraft, World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade, World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King)
