I think I saw on HN a while ago someone suggesting that Valve could make a "clean kernel" build that anti cheats could whitelist for Linux/Proton games.

- athrowaway3z 2y agoThe plan to control what a persistent cheater does to their own device is more than 5 decades of straight failures. Just one more client anti-cheat measure bro. Just one ring lower bro. I'm not sure what I find more terrifying: the persistence of the NSA & Disney lobby for subverting root control in all devices, or that so many people mindlessly agree its the right direction to go and their world will be a better place for it.
- LelouBil 2y agoHonest question, since I know nothing about anti cheat development. Is it really feasible to detect cheats that are not simply "insta lock aim to some player" on the server side only ? Scripting, or Wallhacks, or cheats like these would be impossible to detect automatically and reliably ? (Without something like CSGO's Overwatch where players rate anonymized replays of potential cheaters)
