@Crashd0g Sorry, I disagree. I'm a network security professional and have seen issues with this type of software. Sony had issues with it several years ago. Ring 0 should be reserved to OS only as a security measure.

I'm glad I saw this. I won't be purchasing the PC version, but I might buy the XBox version (need to see what they're doing on that platform).

Not true that anyone criticizing an AntiCheat is a Cheater. AntiCheats can do their thing and be effective without making your PC at greater risk than it needs to be.
Ring 0 access is not needed to make a good AntiCheat. Ring 0 is a lazy approach that leaves you vulnerable.
They should be using Machine Learning and getting the hell out of Ring 0. Not even your AntiVirus needs Ring 0 access to put it in perspective.

not really, Easy Anti-Cheat was busted some time ago for taping into your video card to mine bitcoin for EasyAC
they removed it after they got caught, or they just made it more difficult to find
