      Sooo today, I received envelope from France, containing a letter and CD.
      I asked them to send the personal information by email, but I quess burning 5MB of data is easier for them :D

      Important parts from the letter:
      We are contacting you because your request for personal data.....
      Reminding me I breached ToS and EULA and that the suspension is justified by their findings. No mention about monitoring RAM or whatever.
      Reminding me my account will be available in November.
      According to my right to access my personal data, there is a CD.
      Because it is costly, login informations covers only last 14 months. They could send all login history for "reasonable fee".
      I can consult their private policy on web, should I have any aditional information about data processing and transmission.

      Now, the CD contains PDF and XLS with same data. Information there is organized into sections with this info:
      SOME data have no value, i marked SOME (mostly interesting ones) of them as - empty. I may not have some of them filled in, so some of them are not marked as empty because they may have them for others, just not for me.
      I wrote notes to some lines specifiing how the data looks

      Exactly what I told everyone.

      Exactly.

      I was completely correct.

      No room for debate.

      I won.

      So what is the EU directive? What does it entail? Do they have to give you proof of your wrong doings or what?

      They have to give you the personal data they store about you. I wasn't really expecting to get unbanned, but it's at least interesting to see what they store about me :)

      character/license data is a non-personal information - you were right :)

      i doubt, guess it's only login ip and stuff.
      since they cant extract it i'd say it's only available on offsite storage (backup tapes, etc.) - thus implies this data can't be accessed on demand making it useless for detections

      A good pointer would be version of windows coupled with people who were logged in for 24 hours straight several times in The same week for example.

      Why would they give this information out? If they did we would have an undetectable bot again after each ban wave because we could just have someone request in EU and get the data. It would very silly of blizzard to give out this information.
