Super clickbait title here.
They’re doing what seems to be literally the standard for windows anti cheat. That they’re Chinese owned is moot as worrying about evil Chinese government hackers is to me a secondary concern to the long and illustrious history of terrible security vulnerabilities in all kernel mode “anti-cheat” drivers.
It seems much more likely that this anti cheat driver is just as buggy as every other anti cheat driver, and will end up being exploited by the same groups that every prior driver has been.
My view is that the correct fix for anti cheating is simply pitting all suspected cheaters against each other rather than trying to ban/block them.
