Lol, I love the inclusion of cheat codes like they're as big of a concern as malware. Won't someone think of the children?! I found my son playing GTA5 with bighead mode on sobs uncontrollably*.
This whole thing sounds like the "drugs in Halloween candy" scare, but this seems to actually be real. Neat.
P.S. I don't know if GTA5 actually has bighead mode.
-
They probably mean cheat trainers, as opposed to chat codes(extra software that alters the games memory while it's running), which can often include other malware.
-
I definitely remember bighead mode in NFL Blitz 2000 on the OG Playstation

... anymore. In the beginning you could even find scene release group names in the album titles.

(although I do believe I am one of those persons who saw those filenames myself, but I mean .. that was a looooooong time ago now)

Yup, I used to be in the scene and I'm a musician, had a bunch of my releases, both ones I couriered and albums I released on Spotify, names of songs with the same misspelling.

Wow, is this an iPhone 6?

7, there's no headphone jack.

Why not just get a magsafe compatible case for it?

Wrong, copying is a solution.
