If I was a hacker, I would be spending most of my effort attacking anticheats. Installing spyware on people’s computer to prevent cheating is wrong. They should be doing what devs did before anticheat was invented - server side moderation.
If you were an actual hacker you’d be targeting web sites and Linux servers. Because that allows you to spread your payloads across huge populations easily.
It’s really disturbing how popular the notion that rootkit-based anti-cheat is a good thing is on the internet at large.
I love it when a thread like this comes up on Lemmy every single comment condemns EAC’s whole anti-cheat model.
Y’all are all right.
Kernel level and root kit are two different things. Please don’t confuse them.
