The concerns raised by the Final Fantasy 14 mod highlight the importance of privacy and data security in gaming. Mods can often enhance user experience, but when they risk player privacy, it’s essential for developers to step in and take action. The director’s decision to threaten legal measures is a necessary step to maintain trust and safety in the gaming community.
