However communications between machines over a network are sent via packets and since they are sent to Hypixel they can scan them for whatever they want.Įdit: Correction, Cryptkeeper has stated not Codename_B, apologies to both for the mistake. It is not illegal to scan active ports on a machine, however it is illegal to scan a person machine without their consent. In order for watchdog to scan your Minecraft client it would have to actively be scanning your machine which would violate privacy laws in many countries including the US. This has been stated by Codename_B several times and is why Hypixel recommends you completely reinstall the Minecraft client if you have ever had non-whitelisted mods. The issue with having mods installed and turned off or previously installed is there may be residual effects left that watchdog will see in packets being received (meaning there is no guarantee the mods actually get uninstalled). All of which are unlikley to be affected by any content updates that dont specifcally touch those aspects. I wouldnt worry too much as almost all of them affect menus, asthetics and visuals. Watchdog does not "scan" your Minecraft client, it looks at the packets being sent to the server for abnormalities in the vanilla Minecraft calculations. yeah not a good time to get into approved mods especially with next months surprise coming up too.
