You're viewing a single thread.
That kernel level anti-cheat is really working out well, eh?
Kernel level isn’t about stopping cheaters, it’s about gaining system access
Naw, it's about pretending to stop cheaters. It's security theatre, same as the TSA
To what end?
Any mention of data collection in the ToS?
And about putting a buzzword on your game that makes people think they're safe from cheaters
Source?
Their source comes from it giving system access and that is what they want.
Why would they want that? Are there any cases of it being abused?
Yeah why would any mega conglomerate corporate entity want the most valuable and easy to harvest resource on earth
Computer usage statistics? Score!
Of course, no unfathomably demonic corporate entity would ever choose to track users and target them like that, to for instance sell products with zero repressions due to a lobbying hate group bribing lawyers to make it legal
Would be completely illegal in countries with gdpr. I'm a programmer and can tell you every company takes that super seriously.
You have to agree to be tracked. Most people just do it without thinking.
It has system access yet doesn't prevent cheating.
Nothing is perfect bruh.
