Numerous changes in the past two weeks regarding GTA Online have also affected the creators and sellers of cheat menus. Recently, they received letters from Take-Two representatives demanding that they stop supporting and distributing such software — otherwise, legal action would follow.
The developers behind the cheat menu known as 2Take1 decided not to take any chances and simply announced that this was the end — they would no longer be releasing updates. Meanwhile, the creators of the notorious Stand believe they are safe from lawsuits, as they claim they cannot be identified. Regardless, the source code of this software was made publicly available last fall. Take-Two has also filed a lawsuit against the Chinese company Paiao Network Technology, which owns PlayerAuctions.com. This platform facilitates the sale of boosted accounts and in-game currency for the most popular multiplayer games. The publisher of Grand Theft Auto and Red Dead Redemption is not the first to take issue with such transactions and the resulting damage. Previously, Roblox developers also turned to the courts. The first hearing in that case is set for tomorrow, March 20. Most likely, both companies will succeed in stopping the platform from selling goods and services related to their trademarks.
