GameSpot reported that in the Friday Blizzard sued at least 3 developers and sales of the "StarCraft 2" plug-in, and said they had violated Blizzard's StarCraft 2 user agreement, the use of the Internet regulations and game copyright.  Blizzard seized more than 5,000 cheating accounts a few weeks ago, and last week they sued the Los Angeles District Court for 3 of the makers of a plug-in program. In a blizzard indictment, Blizzard noted that in the short period of the "StarCraft 2" sale, the defendants began to develop, sell and disseminate their plug-in cheating programs, which are designed to be modified by deception, in effect destroying the StarCraft 2 gaming experience.  There is evidence that the defendants, who had just sold the StarCraft 2, advertised their violations on their promotional website, saying they would have planned to develop the "StarCraft 2" cheating program. The 3 defendants in the indictment were Permaphrost, Cranix and Linuxawesome, the first 2 were from Canada and the latter from Peru.  Their illegal plug-in is "Wiggley", "Zynastor" respectively.  and "Dark Mage", they early in the "Star 1" era has begun to make "star 1" illegal plug-in. Blizzard also accused the defendants of encouraging other users to break the game's copyright, because in the process of downloading, installing and using the plug-in, these programs will illegally copy the content that Blizzard has applied for copyright protection, and these people's account permissions are not eligible,  This violates the game's user final license agreement and game management rules, and is suspected of plagiarism of the blizzard "StarCraft 2" creative and design. If these 3 plug-in producers are convicted, they will face severe penalties and high compensation. But blizzard officials do not have an official account of the indictment at the moment.
