Embark Studios may be embracing kernel-level anti-cheat, but they're not abandoning their Linux players.

For everyone who says we don’t want ring 0 or kernel level “root kits” I would agree, but then whats the solution when you can easily defeat these anti cheat solutions by going kernel level?

Genuine question, is there a solution?

What’s more important? Stopping people cheating at games via technology or digital freedom to prevent all kinds power abuse? (Forced obsolescence, surveillance, anti-features, etc)

I don’t care that much about games to be honest. If they get caught cheating, how about just legal action?

There is a 2-part solution:

  • Build a game people enjoy playing more than winning.
  • If you need an anti-cheat solution, design one on a server side.
