windows: pls enable hardware kernel protection :3

anticheat:
no

windows:
ok :(

why the fuck does my stupid tank videogame get veto power over computer security

>try linux
>game says no
>return windows
>windows says lower security

not that I particularly trust microsoft when they put SECURITY in a menu and draw a green shield next to it

but if my cpu + windows can do hardware stack protection why does some videogame anticheat get to go "nah"

am I missing something obvious or is desktop computing genuinely this retarded

It is that retarded. Companies force spyware on your computer to make piracy more difficult or to try to stop cheating in multiplayer games. It sucks.

Buy a seperate PC for every game you play so they are all air gapped from each other
