There is silence because we have asked Blizzard for clarification, and are yet to receive a response. Most of the chatter is going on in Discord. The current status is
1. All we know is they are prohibiting input broadcasting. We need clarification from Blizzard on whether the policy bans ISBoxer outright. EVE Online made the same rule change several years ago, and does NOT ban ISBoxer.
2. I sent an e-mail to Blizzard requesting clarification on the implementation of the new policy. I also submitted a support ticket with the same request.
3. Please stop @ pinging me and everyone else, we are working on finding out more information and so on, and the more each person thinks they need to ask separately about it, the less time we have to be productive
Note: Their Support article was updated prior to this announcement, and prior to the e-mail sent. The Support article does not provide clarification beyond Blizzard's original announcement.
So, we know exactly what you know, although our previous experience of this situation does make us believe that there are options still available, even if they will not be as friendly as the previous situation. Work is going at a reasonable pace to be able to provide something that complies with Blizzard's rules. We just want clarification from Blizzard on what those rules are, as the current information is ambiguous.
