    I doubt any legal action of any kind will be done. if you've ever actually played CS 1.6, you'd know that more than 3/4ths of the servers are NON-STEAM and they ALL have VIP systems with pay2win stuff. There's simply no way that this "service" would get shutdown. I don't condone this by any means, but there's simply no stopping things like this from existing, especially when it makes these people this much fucking money. Most if not all the bad players buy stuff to get an advantage but it yields hardly any difference because they still suck. The worst one I see is the "/medvip" or similar commands that just let you get extra health.
    I know that these versions of CS are specifically catered to people who do not have access to STEAM and are on very limited internet connections, I wouldn't be surprised if most of the players are entirely localized to internet cafes where it's the only place they can access internet, also making IP banning ineffective because they are utilizing public access systems that update IPs potentially quite frequently.
    I'm also not surprised to report that certain versions of non-steam CS are distributed with hacks pre-installed and the client has ZERO idea that this is occurring. These are usually subscription based systems to ensure that people will continue to pay to use this copy of the game because they win all the time, thus further proving the point that this "CS 1.6 Cartel" is very alive and well, and has been for the past decade ever since basic internet access in certain regions have begun to develop.

    The only real use case I can think of for this web version of counter strike is if you're a kid still in school and you love counter strike and want to play in you're break or lunch. That would be useful until it eventually got blocked once teachers saw you playing a shooter game in school. Then they would try blocking it. So not really useful for me as someone who left school years ago but I can see the one use case for this.

    Valve should make all their classic games free to play in a browser... and make the original games open source so people can create modernized source ports, improve the netcode and remove engine limitations... similar to what xash already does... Would be nice to have a free standalone version of Half-Life 1 Deathmatch and Adrenaline Gamer that can run any map and just works... Mostly the hit detection is terrible in these games... It would also be nice to have matchmaking and leaderboards on the same website so you can basicly have a better competetive experience like how Quake Live once did it...

    2. Volvo is so out of touch with it's userbase nowadays that it would be a genuine surprise that anyone at Valve even knows this project exists.
    3. (if they do know) I doubt anyone at Valve sees this project as a serious threat to their revenue. So why bother even taking action.

Anyway, I wouldn't play it at all and the best thing I would do if I wanted to make my CS 1.6 look like CS GO is via mods. Heck, I recently installed mod that gives CS 1.6 weapons animation of CoD 2019 weapons. And it looks cool. But I saw crap tons of mods for CS 1.6 throughout the years, and those that I remember is Counter-Strike Crysis, Counter-Strike Call of Duty Modern Warfare, Counter-Strike WarCraft which is just a CS Deathmatch but with different name. And now there is Counter-Strike Opposing Force, which makes your CS look like Half-Life Opposing Force.

    Yea I used to play games like this in the browser when a few of us would get together in the computer lab. My family actually didn't allow us to own technology so it was the only way I got to play multiplayer with my friends back in like 2006. I actually had some kind of open source game that a few of us customized we would get together on. If you tried to install anything on the lab computers you would get in trouble. :)

      FYI, Id software and EA already tried about a decade ago with Quake Live and Battlefield Heroes, and while the later closed up shop the first ended up "devolving" into an actual standalone (paid) game... So I don't think a project like this would be profitable to any team larger than a handful of Russians recycling someone else's work, TBH

    yknow another thing is that xash3d uses code from the hl2 beta so the engine itself is also considered illegal

    It is for certain a mobile version of CS by using all of its assets but this time around for desktop web browser. Also, not the first time someone tries to make money off from it because there are thousands of apps that do so.

    login system should be safe, many companies use google login just so they don't have to worry about security
