Diablo III Speed Hack?

A post on Diablo IncGamers offers a video showing a character in the Diablo III beta moving at extreme speeds. Many of the posters in the ensuing discussion thread feel this may be showing an actual speed hack for the game as other elements seem to move at normal speed, which suggests this is not just sped-up video. They reproduce a quote from the Blizzard on this also suggesting it may be real, as it says: "Thanks for bringing this to our attention. If you would like to report information regarding cheats or hacks, send it to hacks@blizzard.com. Please don’t assist with disseminating the information by posting it here on the forums." Since this is the type of thing that requiring online play is meant to prevent, if there is such a cheat in the wild, hopefully it can be addressed quickly.

Maybe I'm being stupid - but since when did DRM have anything to do with stopping in-game hacks?

Because that's what Blizzard kept bleating, that this was to stop cheating and hacking, and it had NOTHING to do with DRM.

"Internally I don't think [DRM] ever actually came up when we talked about how we want connections to operate. Things that came up were always around the feature-set, the sanctity of the actual game systems like your characters. You're guaranteeing that there are no hacks, no dupes"

Of course, everyone knows it's simply DRM, and this cheat makes a mockery of Blizzard's empty promises.
