A dedicated gamer, b00lin, waged a 763-day legal battle against Activision to overturn an unjust ban and clear their Steam reputation. The ordeal began in December 2023 after b00lin played over 36 hours of the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 beta. Initially dismissed as a technical error, Activision refused to lift the ban despite b00lin's appeals. Undeterred, b00lin pursued legal action.

Activision's defense, citing security concerns, failed to provide any evidence of cheating, even when b00lin only requested basic information about the flagged software. The court case ultimately exposed Activision's lack of proof, highlighting their stringent anti-cheat secrecy policies. The judge ruled in b00lin's favor, ordering Activision to pay legal fees and lift the ban, which finally occurred in early 2025.
