    With cheaters now using DMA to read memory locations on secondary computers, what’s your suggested solution? A great many people can go “this bad, don’t do this”…

    Great. Fine. Don’t do this – then suggest something we do instead.

      What do you think, considering I was replying to a comment with a proposed solution?

          Why are you asking some rando in a gaming forum? You don’t need to be a security expert to know that you don’t want any random app having kernel level access to your devices just to play a game. It doesn’t take a security expert to know that. The purpose of pointing it out isn’t that we know what the best solution is, it’s to tell studios that this solution isn’t the holy grail they act like it is.

            They are just looking for an argument/confrontation. It’s why I didn’t respond further.
