Hey Foob, just thought I would stop by the forum to post the link to this Video, I would suggest that you checked it out.

To be perfectly honest, even the fact of having (owning, using, providing or granting access to) any modifications to the gamecode (either client or server) is something that is
considered to be in a gray area but it's not really gray at all.
It's
sort of accepted by Mojang because they realize it's a gateway for customers, but it's really not the intended use of their software nor what the license states. It's quite the opposite.
If anything, you should be amazed that all they did until now were really tiny steps to restric the EULA, if at all, especially considering the Realms are now a thing.
The most importat thing to underline here is that they're still not going against hacks, mods etc.
Instead they are simply rightfully trying to avoid having to deal with the collateral damage caused by those things. They're pretty amazing, all things considered
