Still way too much access. Lock them out of the fucking kernel.
I agree. I'm not saying kernel level anti-cheat is acceptable, but the reporting on this has been a disaster. Making things up to try to make them look worse doesn't actually help anyone.
This is what cheaters do, unfortunately. Misreporting about Vanguard happened even on the first day of its release.
does non-kernal level anticheat work anymore if basically all cheaters operate at the kernel level at this point?
