FYI - the owner of this site, gamingonlinux, was a mod on the !linux_gaming@lemmy.ml community until they were caught abusing their moderator powers. Then they deleted their account and complained on mastodon that it’s stupid design that mod logs are public. [Screenshot]

Cleaning up files upon uninstall - Your uninstall script should already be cleaning up any files created or modified by your install process. However, we know that some older games may not fully remove files upon uninstall, and it isn’t possible to update the game any longer. Players need to know if any anti-cheat utilities have left files behind, especially those that modify OS kernel files.
This section alone shows how stupid kernel level anti-cheat is. Play a game and gain a persistent security risk. It’s actually a feature that such games don’t run on Linux.
This reminds me of the stupid Gigabyte RGB software…
Not sure if this is till the case, but for a long time the kernel driver had a known unpatched security vulnerability. And uninstalling the software did not remove the kernel files, so now your system is vulnerable until you reinstall Windows…
And I fully expect some kernel level Anti-Cheat to be no better in this regard.
Omg that logo. GoL is a hexbear confirmed!
In case you happen to be unaware, that’s EAC’s logo.
If it was just a joke, imagine I didn’t say anything.
EAC is heaxbear, confirmed!
