Keyboard interception

[sa16ot]

Hello! I want to write a little pixel bot, using keyboard interception, the tool like GitHub - oblitum/Interception: The Interception API aims to build a portable programming interface that allows one to intercept and control a range of input devices.
My question is: is there anyway Blizzard can detect such keyboard interceptions? Or is it safe?
Thanks

You're just trading injected input (SendInput) detection to driver detection. Neither is really safer than the other, but that said, both have use-cases for legitimate third party tools and Blizzard has never taken action on that, to my knowledge. Just use SendInput.

Thank you! And what about pixel reading, is it safe to read pixels from WOW window? Or from desktop?

Does 'driver detection' mean a kernel mode driver is currently detectable by warden/wow ac? From what i heard, isn't wow's AC user mode only? How does it detect a kernel driver being used?

They can detect drivers via user mode pretty easy and are
