AFAIK DMCA is not about whether copyrighted material is illegally used or not, but about whether something is able to circumvent "technological measure that effectively controls access to a work" which is what makes it bad.

still though, this Evobot seems to be some "cheat" program which does the tedious thing automatically in an online game rather than some AI opponents.
