Is Battleye safe?
I read its EULA and it sounds really shady to me, I can see some security breaches that can be exploited, etc, so is Battleye safe to use?

Its safe to assume that millions of people had it running while playing a game.
If it wasnt safe, you could read bout it.

There were info leaks and security breaches in large companies before + I noticed a security weakness that I know of because my friend who is a cyber major talked about a few times.
either way, thank you for taking your time to answer my question, I am just a little paranoid when it comes to this, thank you
If you play a game, play a game. Do not have sensible things running.
Maybe thats a good advice.

Battle eye is an anti-cheat.
If your trying to find a way around it, that tells me you want to cheat in a game that Battle eye protects.

I don't, I am talking about security breaches it causes on the user's computer and their information, not about a way to go around it, it's pretty simple if you know how actually, I am concerned about a security breach in my pc not in the program itself

How/where do you see them? You should (and I offer you my help doing so) submit a CVS if you see security breaches.
As long as your not using a Focusrite Scarlett, Fanatec racing wheel, certain laptop wireless drivers, or a GPU with a slightly messy driver. You shouldn't Blue Screen, I do a ton, sucks if I want to play games I have to rewire my organized computer cables for my audio interface. Yea its safe its just trash software that stole my simple usage of over $100 in games. Reporting with crash files be dammed they respond with bots.
