It's probably going to move to hardware attestation similar to what Android and iOS are doing. This may or may not be a good thing.
Yeah, idk why everyone seems to legitimately think devs are going to just quietly revert back to usermode anticheat. I could see Riot patching an actual root kit before that happens.
But yeah, more likely MSFT will lobby for hw that is more annoying than secure boot or TPM to get working with linux, every windows app after that point will rely on it "because turnkey security!", and if you ever manage to disable it none of those apps will work on your machine in any OS (if they even worked through proton at all).
They're integrate a low level security framework in c#. Net that needs it and it will be on by default.
Not Windows centric enough. Visual Basic and Excel macros.
