    I’m glad Microsoft realized allowing any company to push kernel-level code to consumers was a terrible idea. A bug at that level can brick a PC and needs to be thoroughly scrutinized before being pushed out to end users. If a company dedicated to computer security wasn’t doing proper code reviews I really doubt game studios were either.

    Fantastic. Though, I have to wonder if this is going to result in either way more cheaters, or if the anti-cheat will become super fucking awful to deal with and start making (broader) arbitrary decisions on what you can and cannot run because it has less access to shit.

    Regardless, the less shit fucking around in the kernel the better, especially for shit that shouldn’t have ever been there in the first place.
