    So … do we have any evidence that rootkits actually decrease the amount of cheating? Like… At all?

      it totally decreases the amount of cheating by a lot. Like the biggest decrease in history. That’s right. It’s huge. /trumpvoice

            If you’re google.com, then yes. But then that would mean you are not google.com, which would mean you are google.com.

      The awnser is a firm no. Cheaters have moved to hardware based cheats with DMA boards. On valorant some cheaters have started exploiting remote play services to use machine vision based aim bots. Neither of those two methods can be detected by a kernel level anti cheat.

        Pfft… that’s easy to solve. Just ask them to identify all the fire hydrants.

        And now they have more fun working with hardware than software. No needing to reverse engineer the game either since you’re just processing display output and executing inputs on separate hardware like an Arduino or Raspberry Pi

          With DMA based cheats I disagree as if you were developing a DMA based cheat you would still need to understand how the game works so you can figure out what memory adresses are for what part of the game.

            You’re assuming the anti cheat won’t refuse to run if a DMA device is installed.

              DMA devices are capable of spoofing their hardware IDs to legitimate hardware IDs to get around that.
