Re: PokerStars: Allow Datamining

People saying there wouldn't be benefits to it in instances like this are wrong.

the ONLY benefit of datamining to the overall game is catching bots and the occasional cheater, which is an incredibly rare instance (not them existing, just them getting caught from a dateminer). And its only a benefit if the site itself isnt actively trying to do the same. Since I have faith in stars, im not worried about it. Stars isnt FPT or AP, its an actually well run company.

I think that gets at the point
I don't have faith in trusting anyone in the online gaming industry
It probably comes from dealing with some of the casinos and quite a few of the sportsbooks
I admit, pokerrooms have less incentives (their money should be coming from rake and not against the players directly)
However, I view everything in the industry as buyer beware and even pokerstars hasn't convinced me otherwise
