Epic Games has filed suit against two individuals for making and using software that allows players to cheat in their game, Fortnite, according to court documents. A pair of suits filed in North Carolina name Brandon Broom and Charles Vraspir as the defendants. Both are said to be associated with the same subscription-based cheating service, AddictedCheats.net.
These lawsuits are unique because the cheating service itself isn’t the subject of the civil litigation. Instead, Broom and Vraspir are being sued personally. Each instance of copyright infringement carries a penalty of up to $150,000.
