This is an utter failure of oversight in governance. And likely a misappropriation of government funds.

What a colossally shortsighted decision.

    online gaming anti-cheat

    Just saying, if you have to give a game kernel level access to your glorified porn viewer in order to play it, you should really reconsider if its a good idea to play it, both from a security as well as a mental view.

      Definitively, but there is a huge list of popular games that have it, so I think it’s fair to warn people about it so they can make an informed choice and not become a disgruntled ex-Linux user.

      I am hopeful that Valve, and the game industry in general, manages to come up with a solution for game developers can come up with a solution that works for everyone, but so far I have not heard of one. Meanwhile, I’m happy to skip some games to stay on Linux.
