Is Hamachi legal?

We explain to you in this practical tip whether Hamachi is legal.

Hamachi: Is it legal?

• The Hamachi program, which has since become a paid program, enables LAN games to be set up even without a "real" LAN connection. The LAN connection is only imitated. The connection of the individual players does not take place via a local connection as intended, but via an Internet server.
• Even if you do not establish a correct LAN connection, you still connect with each other. From a legal perspective, the use of Hamachi is therefore legal.
• There is neither a legally known case, nor a way to prove the use of Hamachi at all.
• Even though Hamachi is often used to bypass the online multiplayer function in illegally activated games, the tool is largely used in a legal context. The use is therefore completely legal.

In the next practical tip, we will show you how to configure Hamachi correctly.
