Still way too much access. Lock them out of the fucking kernel.
I agree. I'm not saying kernel level anti-cheat is acceptable, but the reporting on this has been a disaster. Making things up to try to make them look worse doesn't actually help anyone.
does non-kernal level anticheat work anymore if basically all cheaters operate at the kernel level at this point?
