After the cheat was bought to light, Activision moved fast and began taking down all YouTube channels associated with the developer's of the hack. Now the developers of the hack have announced they are shutting down the project because they got a 'request' from Activision.

Call of Duty Warzone has been in the eye of the storm recently with console players demanding an option to play only against other console players. The PC version of the game is infested with hackers and while Activision and Raven Software have brought the ban hammer down en masse, it doesn't appear to be making a difference.
