Oh boy, where to begin. I'm not complaining that an anti cheat system exists. I'm complaining that there was no notice on the store page or anything in the Eula, nor any consent prior to installation.
1🙂 I do use security software extensively;. What some seem to be missing is what ring level 0 access means. The software has direct access to the windows kernel equivalent to root level for any Linux people if something in ring 0 has bugs or security flaws it could be used to exploit the system with out user awareness. since its whitelisted security software wont stop malware thaty hoock in to a signed process. That is why this is bad.
2🙂 "Only cheaters complain about anti cheat har har" That's such a well constructed rebuttal I might as well get off the internet :P In fact that statement is the height f ignorance. That's on the same level as saying "only thieves and criminals care about DRM
3 🙂 the counter argument seems to come down to "but muh game" with out considering the wider implications. when people cant assess risks that's how exploits happen.
