>new Vanguard anti-cheat can sabotage your operating system to the point of making it permanently unusable>Big companies make fun of you instead of resolving the situation
It's just an operating system, and shitdows at that. Just replace it with something good.
can you explain what this means to a straight person?
>>739341209your fault for playing league of assfaggots
>>739341209>cheat in a video game>your pc is now brickedgenuinely what anticheat needed. now they just need to make it so it burns out all the hardware and turns it into a literal firebomb.
>>739341209QRD?
>>739341338The card is blacklisted to play vanguard
>>739341492Vanguard now has full access to your PC to the point that they can bricking if they want, but this only happens to cheaters for now, as they place a trap that renders your PC unusable every time they activate the trap.
if you play a riot game you deserve to have this happen whether you cheat or not
>>739341209how the fuck is this legal? you can do whatever the shit you want with your server, block me, block my entire fucking country too for good measure, but this? you literally fucking with my hardware and my fucking money.like what the actual fuck is wrong with these nigger
I think I’m just gonna stick to FF14 and old games and emulation on PC. Switch 2 is fine too for the stuff I care about.
>>739341209YouTube poop voice:>This is illegal, you know
Someone played league on their shitcoin mining rig?
>>739341691they can bricking? even if I do the needful?
>>739341758uhmmm maybe next time dont click on accepting the terms of the EULA sweaty..
>>739341209if they actually tried this they'd just get sued for destruction of property. this is just the social media retard being a social media retard.
>>739341758>HOW CAN SHE SLAP?
>>739341474honestly agreeevery time anticheat even works partially well, chinks and jeets en masse have raging meltdowns, good stuff
>>739341691SAAR WHY ARE YOUIN THE BRICKING OF MY PC YOU CANNOT BE IN THE DOING OF THAT SAAAR
>>739341885who gives a fuck it's probably china anyway
this can't be real, they must mean a simple hardware ban right?i dont play these rootkit games, whats to stop me from buying 20 laptops, bricking them on purpose by installing cheats and getting caught, then filing for damages against the company because they installed malware on my system which is highly illegal in developed nations?>ERRR YOU SIGNED THE USER AGRE....any reasonable judge, especially if they are older, will throw that shit in the trash day 1 of litigation
Anyone still playing LoL deserves it, honestly. Maybe it'll help them break their unhealthy addiction.
>>739341860i don't play chink games with admin/kernel level access sweetie, if my eula states you'd must suck my cock and handle all your mortal possession, would that still be legal?literally none of you guys are real fucking human being yes i fucking know you are either a paid jeet/chinks or a bot.
>>739341209>its not a rootkit and its good that it is.
>>739341209>operating system>permanently unusablewhat
>>739341492it's some PCIe device that lets you cheat, no normal gamer would even own one of theseim guessing every chinese gamer does though
>>739341209redeemed
Haven't people been banned for cheating erroneously due to them running some harmless software that the anti-cheat didn't properly recognize? Are they going to pay for a new machine when they brick someone's PC when the person wasn't even cheating?
>>739342131>if my eula states you'd must suck my cock and handle all your mortal possession, would that still be legal?No, but the law treats sexual acts, property rights, and computer access pretty differently.
>>739342228when does this pay for itself?
>>739342207that's just windows 11 out of the box.
>>739342363given how chinks go insane when you ban them or force them to play with other chinks, it's like a drug that they have severe withdrawals over
>to the point of making it permanently unusablePLEASE GOD NO PLEASE JUST GIVE A LITTLE BIT OF MERCY TO RETARDED UNEDUCATED SWINE ZOMMERS WHO BELIEVE WHATEVER A SLOPTUBER TELLS THEM FOR GODS SAKE
>>739341860>don't click on accepting the termsThank you saar. In the first world an EULA does not give companies permission to sabotage your computer.
>>739342228people really spend that much to just cheat in a game
>>739341335This
>>739341860>EULAMuh eula Kys
Full context because OP is a niggerfaggot: https://xcancel.com/ogisadaDMA/status/2056744450362048835I don't know if Riot's anticheat is bricking the firmware of the SSDs of of people identified as cheaters (potentially including innocent players that triggered a false positive) or the firmware of cheat devices. I'm not knowledgeable on the subject of cheating in online gaymes.
>>739342228it was only a matter of time tbhngl. competitive esports will eventually move to root of trust, signed binaries, and full end to end attestation.
>>739342990my understanding is the device passes through another one (like an SSD) so no "innocent" player is being hit by this
>>739341209cheaters should be executed like animals
you will own less and less of the physical things you buyit's why they're getting rid of DVD, because you can own them
>>739342990They are specifically targeting the cheating device's firmware rendering them useless, not SSDs that would share SATA/NVMe ports. I think maybe 1% of people who claim they are innocent are actually innocent. Cheaters are scum, of course they would lie.
>>739341209>cheat in a free game>6k stolenthis is clearly a crime
If you have process hacker (the alt for default procces viewer) or open cheat engine by just having that spyware in the background it will brick you
>>739342053>any reasonable judgeyou believe those exist...?like, you actually believe that...?
>>739343171>>739343209how are they detecting the 'pass-through'? or is it infact, *not* a pass-through? because 'pass-through' to me is, its essentially an oscilloscope on the pcie lanes. but that would be quite expensive... so presumably, to keep things reasonable, it is a 'real' pcie device, that presents itself to the host system as a pcie bridge? in which case its trivially identifiable... i need to brush up on this.
>>739342363every pro player and/or streamer would make the cash back with sponsors and ads
I don't like the idea behind this. Cheaters are getting what they deserve but who is to say this kind of technology stops at them? Whose to say this shit won't be used for ransomware in the future
>>739342990Destroying people's hardware is an actual crime.
>>739343335the hardware is fine if it only needs an OS reinstall
>>739343269good
>>739342228It's a DMA ( Direct Memory Access ) card lets you read out the memory contents of your pc on a seperate pc and modify it. So the idea is that you put this in the machine you play games on and then have a seperate machine that runs the cheats and modifies the memory and the anti-cheat can't flag the cheat software or memory modification paterns because it happens externally. Anti-cheat is a complete meme anyway anything these anti-cheat devs think of is circumvented week later because it's 1000 vs 1 cheat devs vs anti-cheat dev and clientside protection is never going to work.Anti-cheat has been solved decades ago and it's called server browser and community servers
HEY RETARDS WANT TO SEE A MAGIC TRICKGOVERNMENT CORPORATIONGOV CORPOGOVCORPOINCREDIBLE
Fucking nuts they are using a device used for debugging and developing PCIe cards to cheat in a shitty free game.
>>739343292It essentially works like this:1. IOMMU maps specific boundaries for where hardware components are allowed to look in your system memory (RAM).2. When the H2-board attempts to read game data packets out of their designated boundaries, the CPU's memory controller immediately catches the rogue read attempt.3. Vanguard flags this illegal physical address translation as a direct hardware violation, regardless of what the board pretends to be. I think before this they could hook into the memory early before Vanguard's driver could boot, but Riot closed this loophole by mandating pre-boot dma protection and will force the user to update their BIOS if it's not enabled.
>>739341691I though (even it morally permissible) no sane company would put a kill switch cause there is always a risk of fake positives.
>>739343481clout pays bills
>>739343412still counts as malware
>>739342990I don't like cheaters but, I have a feeling Riot is about to lose some money over this if its true.
>>739343482interesting. how long until we get DDR5 interposers? then we get mandatory in-memory encryption...
>play game>dev decides to brick your hardwarethis is straight up illegal in australia
>>739343564who is going to take Riot to court over this?blizzard already won against cheat devs. bricked PCs is a user's cost of doing business with the cheat devs.
>>739342228Vanguard detects DMA. does this card solve for IOMMU?>Authentic PCIe enumeration i guess this is it?
How fucking stupid are people if they can't create a flash drive with whatever OS they want and if their current one bricks, you can just reinstall?
>>739341691That is bad. False positives can happen.
>>739343335Destroying people's hardware WITHOUT THEIR PERMISSION is an actual crime.
>>739342053It's literally in the EULA that Riot can come to your house and fuck you in the ass if they want. Anyone playing their games is shit out of luck in the realm of consumer protection.
>>739343468>Anti-cheat has been solved decades ago and it's called server browser and community serversidiotretarded idiot>>739343468>It's a DMA ( Direct Memory Access ) card lets you read out the memory contents of your pc on a seperate pc and modify it. >So the idea is that you put this in the machine you play games on and then have a seperate machine that runs the cheats and modifies the memory and the anti-cheat can'ti think you're confusing this with ai cheatsVanguard flags for DMA
>>739343650>who is going to take Riot to court over this?australian government
>>739343482>>739343623to continue, it does seem quite vulgar to still be cheating via backdoor information.take AlphaGo: it won at Go not by cheating, but by playing better than any human.is it not the natural path forward, to have a separate computer that interposes the same thing that the human sees?so a second, "assistant" PC that sits between:- hdmi signal- keyboard- mouseand subtly assists all your actions. you are still playing as usual. but it nudges you here and there. and the better you play, the more it assists you. sort of a player-AI symbiosis. and much harder to detect, no?i suppose a simple solution is to mandate hdmi content encryption, but you can still point a camera at the screen.
>>739343041only sensible opinion i've seen in a while on this topic across various forums
>>739343602>I have a feeling Riot is about to lose some money over this if its true.Anon, you falsely believe that corporations ever get punished for anything. There are corporations who are directly responsible for the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people and they were never held accountable. Why do you think a corporation merely damaging property would be?
>>739343704I really doubt someone will run LoL on a test bench pc with a DMA card in some test lab, which is the only legitimate use of a DMA card. Absolutely no gaming pc or even workstation will have one of these or an equivalent installed.

They are literally writing UEFI cheats now a days kernel anti-cheat is a fucking meme and it doesn't work.
>>739343831but what if they do?seems like something easy to setup that you could then sue riot for distributing malware this is 100% malware btw>>739343869just the presence of malware is a crime
is any of the games that use it fun to justify this?
I thought Vanguard died after like 1 month.
>>739343903now legally prove it's malware.it's shitty. I would never have it on my computer. but that doesn't make it malware.
>>739343903and what if the world was made of pudding???? hmmm???
>>739343925It's only grown, anon. Riot has like 50+ internal engineers working on Vanguard, and I've been told they have weekly meetings with Microsoft security too.
>be PC vegan>own nothing
>>739343945this is also exonerating the physical device sitting in the middle of all this

On one hand, a company daring to intentionally bundle actual malware with their products should result in everyone involved being skinned aliveOn the other hand, a computer self destructing upon detection of League of Legends is probably good for the consumerI'm conflicted
>cheating>cheating on a videogameAlmost nothing is more pathetic than hiding to get an advantage over others, specially on a game
>>739344267>on your PC>doesn't have a dedicated gaming PCare you poor or something?
>>739344147Actually you're right, instead of bricking the hardware we should brick the cheating players.
It might be a bit too far, but i have no sympathy for cheaters so i don't really care. What worries me though is that i don't believe there won't be false positives at some point by how far they keep going to combat it. Like i game on a windows virtual machine with gpu passthrough since i main linux but wanna use windows for gaming. I never cheat or do anything nefarious with the vm, but i'm sure they'd ban me just for being on a vm. Luckily i don't care about these multiplayer games, but at some point there might be some i want to play for a bit
>>739344523
>>739344446why are you so focused on the DMA card when it doesn't matter?riot has no right to fuck with the software/hardware of the user.ban the user if the card is detectedif they can't detect the card then they shouldn't be trying to fuck with the system anywayand if they can detect the card, just ban the usernot fucking rocket science
>>739344557...the DMA card is the thing being detected by the Anticheat. it's not going to do this shit to any standard setup. why are you so brown?

>>739344807yeah it also does that. stop cheating.
no proof of bricking btw
>>739344147>turn the game off insteadi mean they did.
Frankly if you play League post-malware, you can't really complain.
>>739344845i don't cheat moroni don't want game companies to be spreading malware
>>739343861that looks like good fun. its ofcourse quite mad scientist esque, but spiritually, i think i am a (quiet) proponent of these 'cheating' systems, because by making a system that mimicks human behaviour completely undetectably, that is a good constraint for embodied robotics/AGI. by solving it comprehensively, you have to first 'invent' AGI, and then the undetectable 'cheating' system comes as a natural by-product (among many others).the ultimate cheat is to actually just do the thing. the most fool-proof way to fake the moon landing is to do the moon landing, as cheaply and effectively as possible.so it will be with robotics. everyone is trying to fake their way out of doing work. a fake cook in the kitchen, a fake housemaid to hoover the house, a fake gamer to carry me in cs. but to fake it competently requires going down to the roots of what it is youre trying to fake (in FPS shooters, you are observing the screen, moving the mouse, and inputting clicks), and learning to play the game by the same rules that a human does (otherwise, whats the point? if the robot needs 'outside help', then its usefulness drops drastically.)imagine one of those chinese bipeds sitting at a desk and onetapping people like ScreaM. is that... cheating? i guess so, but at a certain point it does become a 'legit' player in its own right, like the alphago system. at that point, its not a matter of "i dont want cheaters in my game", but rather: "i dont want to play against robots".
>>739344901>i don't want game companies to be spreading malwareit's voluntary, nothing is being 'spread' except maybe you ass cheeks for jamal, don't like it go and play something else
>>739341209You agree to toc and eula, you agree to how they operate their software in your system. Taking this matter into a court is just wasitng everyones time

Why do people bother cheating in online video games? Whats the point? Its only a game. Its not like you really gain anything. I dont even understand why anyone takes this shit so serious.
>>739345112it bricks all devices of its typethey have many legitimate usessome are saying it kills pcie network cards too
cheaters are the reason linux users cant play Rust on most servers anymorefuck cheaters, boil them in a wok
>>739345186What do you think the point of video games is? The same applies to cheating in them.
>>739342663I used to work with a DMA cheater, and here's how he justifies it>okay so it's like the darkweb of multiplayer and EVERYONE pro who cheats will cheat this way because it's totally undetectable so long as you keep fueling ChinJeetCheatInc.Invisionfree.cn for the latest updates and play JUST OP enough to not draw suspicion in replays and logs but at the end of the day this means that you need DMA cheats to get into the REAL fight with REAL pros so yeah it turns every game into Titanfall kinda where you and the DMA cheaters are the PC's and the DMAless are the NPC XP farms and it becomes an absolutely unhinged mind game where you might even have to start grabbing packets to drophack once everyone starts drophacking and this is a lotta shit to deal with over multiple screens especially if you're crossfading but YEAH it's way better than vanilla MPIt's basically an altered state for people who no longer get dopamine from playing normally, so drug costs and the constant need to change your identity when busted are a good comparison. These retards killed Paladins way before Hi-Rez was able to, so I'm all for pissing them off, as big DMA cheaters and scriptwriters tend to run in the same crowd as ChinJeet email/phone scammers - all of which deserve the same fate of the son of that one Ukranian scammer who ended up finding him scattered in a forest
>>739341209You're lying. >>739345186You're retarded.
I think people who cheat on online games are kinda patheticI also hate all technocratic wannabe corporations, so I hope that they get sued and burn to the fucking ground. Not gonna happen though, because we live in a plutocracy.
>>739345230vagueposting king
>>739345230zoomers call any tech inconvenience "bricking" so the word lost its meaning. you are doing it right now.
>>739345058i did! its an end-to-end proof of the principle. but its still nothing more than a 'classical' AI, that is, vision detection algorithms followed by servo inputs in a 'fixed' closed loop. that is automation of the sort used in mass production assembly lines since the 90s.which is still important, you need an existence proof. but it can't navigate maps. it doesn't have a 'mind-model' (indeed, what does that even mean?) of the 'world' (huh?) that it sees on the screen.its sort of like, Apple Siri circa 2010 vs. chatgpt. i mean... both are text, right? both are Q&A agents. but one is not like the other. chatgpt is sort of, a qualitative step change, it operates on a principle that contains within it the semantic tree parsing of the old chatbot architecture as a special case.something like that is waiting to be discovered for robotics.the ultimate cheating robot will be able to complete a game of CS, get up, and start washing the dishes. now *that* - is a cheater.
>>739345186Its mostly account sellers and servicers buying these devices. a random chinese or russian will just cheat in another game.

>>739345296this is very much a brickinghaving to fully reinstall your OS is soft-bricked at least
>>739345332
>>739345230There are no legitimate uses for these devices. Name two.Cheaters often lie about what anticheat is doing to scare legitimate players, and I doubt this has had any impact on legit network cards especially given that it's creating transactions that don't talk with a network card.
>>739343602If it were true they'd definitely committing a crime here. But with so many stories from Riot it's a meaningless PR lie for their amazing anticheat or whatever. (Vanguard to this date sucks even compared to simple solutions like CS2's trust rating.)No wonder they need something to uphold the appearance.
>>739341758>ivan/pablo/kyle can't pretend to be good at video games for clout anymoreboo hoo
I can't believe Riot would do that, hurt the feelings of the chinese people so casually.
>>739345329>the problem being?That it gives RIOT the highest level access to your machine, You don't even have ring-0 access to your hardware and for what? All kernel-anticheat games are full of cheaters. if this shit worked that would be one thing but it doesn't even work.
>>739343468>Anti-cheat has been solved decades ago and it's called server browser and community serversor have chinese only match making
this thread is a larp and full delusion, they just meant you cant play the game anymore. if they actually bricked hardware they'd be immediately sued
>>739344218Because it's malware
Why do situations like this always bring out faggots that put you in one corner or the other? I loathe cheaters but I don't go for any corporation do jack fucking shit with anyone's computer. >You're against thought police?>YOU MUST FANTASIZE ABOUT NAKED CHILDREN THENYou want to ban accounts, blacklist hardware or whatever, fine. That should be all that's required. I don't need some dumbass corporation with malware getting hacked and next thing you know we've all got bricked hardware or need to reinstall OS or some shit.

>>739343468>Anti-cheat has been solved decades ago and it's called server browser and community serversI just know you'd ban better players for cheating because
Why is /v/ complaining about this? The overall consensus here is that Team Xecuter getting destroyed by Nintendo was pure corporate greed against innocent modders, and that they were legally 100% in the right to brick your console if you used a custom firmware because they worded their hidden EULA vaguely in Chinese, so what's the issue? Isn't this based and epic?
>>739345264fun? I only play single player games so I dont care about anything other than fun.
>>739345268>You're retarded.your just being dismissive for no reason and making yourself look silly. What do you gain by cheating in an online game? Do you win money?
>>739341209>playing anything made by riot in 2026
>>739345648>ban better playersbased, they can fuck off to comp servers
>>739345482>All kernel-anticheat gamesyour problem is thinking all KLACs are the same because they mandate TPM and Secure Boot as requirement TPM and SB are the vehicle, not the package. you still need proper detection code. and out of all of them, Vanguard does the best job. as witnessed by the partial butthurt in this thread and on Xitter over "bricked" cards
>>739342228All this effort and money just to cheat. Seriously, what the fuck is wrong with people?
Why aren't these companies just suing cheaters and cheat providers?I'm pretty sure it's easy to sue for damages when players of your game say that the cheater ruined the game and made them not buy things.
>>739345308Why do they cheat though? Whats the point? Its only a game. What do they gain from cheating in random matches? I understand cheating in say a tournament where you can get money for winning but whats the point in cheating in random no stakes games?
>>739345768So the community servers dont work.
>>739345809blizzard didthe long arm of the law is only as effective as its reach

>>739345889>>739345384High-Performance Computing (HPC) clusters, algorithmic financial trading, datacenter SmartNICs, and high-speed signal processing.Key Use CasesAlgorithmic Financial Trading: Used for high-frequency trading (HFT) where extreme, microsecond-level latency is critical. The FPGA acts as a hardware-level network interface that can parse market data and execute trades before traditional software running on a CPU even registers the event.Datacenter & Cloud SmartNICs: Offloads network and storage protocols (like NVMe-oF or packet routing) from server CPUs. This frees up datacenter hosts to run virtual machines or containerized workloads while the FPGA handles line-rate encryption, compression, and firewall duties.High-Performance Computing (HPC) & AI Acceleration: Handles highly parallel, custom data pipelines, as well as domain-specific data types not natively optimized in CPUs or GPUs.Hardware-in-the-Loop & Protocol Emulation: Utilized by hardware developers to prototype custom ASIC designs or build complex test and measurement tools (e.g., PCIe 5.0 SSD testers) before releasing them to mass production.Defense, Aerospace, & Telecommunications: Used in radar, signals intelligence, and 5G/6G radio systems to capture massive streams of high-bandwidth I/O and process signals in real-time.
>>739345889if you are using it for the legit purposes of debugging then reinstalling the OS should already be a regular part of the process. no idea why you would try to game on such a machine like a tard. that's why it's obvious it's cheaters lying.
>>739345889>>739345980Yet you're playing Riot games on these...
People are always complaining about hackers and cheaters in online games, but 99% of the time I'm never bothered by them. The only time a hacker is a problem for me is if they are not able to take damage and die. They can use all the auto aiming and wall hacks they want. It makes me a better player as I'm now going up against someone that (should) completely and utterly outmatch me. Makes that kill all the more sweeter.
an anticheat software having the power to brick your whole system isn't something to be celebrated, no matter the context. one wrong faulty line of code in a future vanguard update could kill millions of devices. riot's kernel level malware vanguard is a customers right violation
>>739345959Do you not think its a bit silly to take video games so serious?
>>739341209A lot of confidence in what would result in a getting sued if it somehow hits a false positive.
>>739346041good thing you hallucinated this ridiculous scenario. it would indeed be quite bad.
>>739346041>an anticheat software having the power to brick your whole system isn't something to be celebratedGood thing thats not whats happening here
Why even play multiplayer games?
>>739345991they have many usesno one should have to reinstall an OS because riot decides to fuck with your system>>739345998if this is the path you want then don't develop for pc's
>>739343468It's not just that there's a ten thousand cheaters for every dev on the dev team, but the guys selling cheats and cheat hardware to people make huge stacks of money from it, probably as much as or more than the actual game itself - $400 for the hardware, then you've got the software too, often subscription based. Even if only 10% of the playerbase is cheating in a given game, this is fuckloads of money.It's why I don't bother with competitive stuff anymore. The only way you can really fix this problem is by designing a game such that people either don't want to cheat or the fundamental design is just very difficult to cheat.
>>739346042I think everything is fair game the moment publishers start distributing malware. I hope hackers manage to tap into this to damage "legitimate" hardware even before false positives happen.
>>739343602>I have a feeling Riot is about to lose some money over this if its trueI dehumanize the jeet scam number that ripped my aunt off daily, sometimes getting screams and full-on crying, and have yet to be hit with any hate speech citations, because just like the cheaters, they'd have to tell an uncaring American judge WHY they were in this position in the first place (wire fraud, telemarketing, number hijacking/spoofing)Now imagine some Chinese kid demanding extradition because Riot banned his Aliexpress DMA setup, this thread is proof they won't do S H I T
>>739346096>>739346075it could just as easily brick your ssd you realize?

>>739346364>compfag cant stop thinking about trannydicks
Unless I'm misunderstanding, nothing is getting bricked. this is a $6000 card that gives direct memory access and allows you to cheat in games, they figured out how to detect it so the implication is it's a paperweight because you can't cheat anymore, the device still functions.
Everyone relax. I think it's good that the chancellor has this power. He's fighting the separatists. He's on our side.
>>739346357Why would you have fun cheating? Its fake victory.
>>739343041The only way to successfully prevent cheaters is by having the only way to play the game to be at sanctioned locations that have regular inspections, but still have player gameplay analysis on top. And even then this will only work until we get some form of wearable cheat device. And then it's all over once cybernetic augments become a thing.
>>739346407CORRECT
>>739346407actually readhttps://x.com/ogisadaDMA/status/2056744450362048835it requires a full OS reinstall to unfuck it
>>739343335>>739343602>>739345068I mean they did click yes on the user agreement box that no one reads.
>>739346501damn that must be really scary to tech illiterate zoomer faggots who just want to cheat in valorant
>>739346407INCORRECT
>>739346415All victories in video games are fake unless there is a monetary gain.
>>739346501Should not embed your cheats into your OS
>>739341209That stupid post is why there's so much confusion. The device isn't a paperweight if it only requires an OS reinstall.I hate lying, sensationalist pieces of shit.

>>739342228Who buys this? What the fuck?
>>739346549its not embedded in the OS moronits a separate devicethis is bricking the OS so it can't talk to the device
>>739346546Well in a single player game you are moving the story forward and getting access to more story or more levels or whatever. In online games you are just repeating the same things over and over a million times and not really getting anything new. So the victory in a single player game gives you access to more of the game but that is not the case in online games.
>>739346560ok lets change it to>boss or boss's kid play valorant on company systemnow what?

>>739346651>modifying the users operating system in a malicious way without consent and without a way of undoing itor in other words, bricking the OS
>>739346608My PC works without that device, is it bricked?
>>739341474Sure, glad I'm not playing that faggot game anyway, but who in their right mind would think it's okay for some chink/kike spyware anticheat get so deep it can brick your machine? Fuck outta here with your corpodicksucking attitude

>>739345068ROIT themselves posted that dumbass
>>739346628The point of competitive online games is to pwn people, cheating is just an extension of that.
>>739346792>>739346854damn, I really cant miss out on those crypto scams while cheating

>>739341758It makes the cheat hardware unusable in that windows instalation I think it fucks with something in the PCIE hardware drivers at the OS level if you care that much just reformat and download valorant and play legit.The hardware hack method is done for at this point.
>>739344353What side is the OP post picture?
>>739347015cheaters are saying it only fucks with one specific type of card and all others are fine

Anons please help, I am ignorant about the issue and scared about Vanguard and any other riot games shit staying hidden in my PC.I factory reset my PC after Vanguard was first dropped. But I am now reading in this thread Vanguard actually affects your hardware and is still hidden in your pc collecting data and shit. Is that true? Did factory resetting not clean that shit, I need a new PC?
Even if you broke the ToS and cheated. Even if you cheated hard. Riot aren't legally allowed to destroy my computer.
>>739347758have they already destroyed your computer, legal or otherwise?
>>739347742not only do you have AIDS but even buying a new computer will not remove the dastardly software

Why am i supposed to feel bad about this?
>>739344267With how many streamers show their PC insides on cam, I wonder if you could find these hardware visible on camera
>>739348410 Nah, not the motive. Most cheaters are broke thirdies from shithole countries and they cheat to boost an account before selling it.
>>739343747>Anyone playing their games is shit out of luck in the realm of consumer protection.Not in Australia.I got banned from League years and years ago and I got a full refund on every cent I ever spent on the game.Our consumer law literally trumps anything in any EULA, you literally cannot sign away your basic consumer rights in Australia, even if you physically force me to sign away my rights or click on some bullshit to agree to it (companies still do this to try and trick Aussies into thinking they have no rights) it isn't legally binding whatsoever and every company knows it, and technically even telling Aussies they don't have those rights is in breach of our law, so right off the bat they're setting themselves up to get fucked.Unironically tempted to install their fucking malware and get my shit banned in their fruity tooty fagfest CS with magic just to rake them over the coals.

>>739349502Riot randomly detects other games as cheats and can ban you for it. If you play any game with Vanguard, basically, you're retarded.
>>739349502>regularly break GDPRCan't be true otherwise EU lawyers would be gaping them in court right now, they love doing that shit.
>>739344921I kind of think of that like performance enhancing drugs or a theoretical superhuman competing in a sport. If there were a handful of humans who were simply born different, and that difference gave them the capability to be an order of magnitude better athlete than other players, would it be fair to ban them on grounds of being too good?The same goes for when AI becomes good enough to not only emulate a human playing a video game, but when that AI suddenly becomes far beyond humans in terms of skill. Will online gaming eventually just become AIs fighting other AIs on behalf of their masters, with humans becoming passive observers? Even if you try to ban AI by the simple heuristic of just being too good, what do you do when they lower their skill level to be imperceptible compared to someone just really good at the game?I think at that point, the only way we could play video games against one another would be to go to a neutral environment like an arcade that confirms neither side is cheating by providing the hardware they play on and inspecting the players for cybernetics and such. If you were to try and just play on the internet like we've done in old times, you'd never score a single kill or point because of the prevalence of AI, making it only possible to play games against people you know and hope a gentlemen's agreement not to cheat is something both sides will go with.

Not to mention the whole SKG shebang.The same could happen to Riot if Vanguard screws up, break innocent people's PCs and they get sued for damages.
>>739346593yes always remember this board is incredibly brown and they are faking a principled stance and obfuscating the truth as much as possible because they are actually morally bankrupt cheaters that want to trick you into making it easier to ruin this hobby

>>739349390AT&T is a major telecom and the fact they were paid to stream that slop is hilariously chinese

>>739347485malding cheating tranny
every one of you that posted here are literal goy cattle that deserve to be fucking enslaved by your kike overlords, imagine buying hardware with your own fucking money, your literal life and blood, to be fucking controlled by a fucking 3rd party coz of vidya, fucking lmao.SAGE IN ALL FUCKING FIELDS
>>739350341You already said that and you'll still get banned <3
>>739350341Not companies?
>>739350586this guys skin is the color of poop lol
>>739341209I hope they damage as many of these fuckers as possible before they get the lawsuit that shuts them down. What they are doing is both based and highly illegal. It needed to be done and someone had to bite the bullet and fucking do it.
Imagine letting your anus get probed by the CCP only to have most bans be from manual reviews by thousands of Indians anyway.
>>739350648>highly illegalwhat is?
>>739350619A company would held liable for damaging property. Why wouldn't it be?
>>739349171>So, you'rr gonna buy a 6000 dollar cheat card from China, go through the process of installing it on your second 2000 dollar pc so you could get banned and Riot somehow havingnto pay YOU 10000 dollars for it?A DMA card isn't "a cheat card" anymore than the USB drive you had full of games that you took to high school was a "piracy stick", DMA cards have legitimate software and hardware development use cases, which is why they fucking existed long before microdick chinks started using them to cheat, anyone in software or hardware engineering has them or access to them. Are those gaudy, overpriced ching chong ping pong cards being used to cheat? Absolutely, as is the microdick chink way, but that still doesn't give Riot or anyone any fucking right to brick peoples hardware.If they're bricking the firmware on DMA cards as a pre-emptive anti-cheat measure through their fucking rootkit anti-cheat they are breaking the law and yes, I will happily set them up to destroy a few grand of hardware, fuck I might even set it up so they destroy government hardware, and then bury the australian government deep in their ass, just like we buried them in gabes ass. Riot are cunts and cunts deserve to get fucked and quite frankly the fact that chink owned companies are freely installing rootkits on peoples computers needs to fucking end and blatant cases of criminal damage and foreign espionage is a good step toward that end.

>>739350960>dude, i'll totally take a trillion dollar company to court and win even though i was the one in the wrongIf he simply has a DMA card installed and Riot bricks it, how would he be in the wrong? And the Australians literally took Valve to court and won.
>>739345773probably top rank players for tournament prizes
>>739343291Kyle Rittenhouse got one.
>>739351072because the card isn't bricked and incurred no damages monetary or otherwise to the user
>>739351072>if...Riot bricks itany day now
>>739347819I'm not a capitalist
>>739351072you should actually read what the brickware did instead of just assuming it made the bugman's computer explode. riot games isn't headquartered in israel.
>>739351162>because the card isn't bricked and incurred no damages monetary or otherwise to the userThey openly claim to be bricking the firmware on DMA cards, if he uses the card for work, or it's government property, then yes there is massive damages, both monetary and otherwise.
Wow, suddenly all the complains about rootkit anti cheat doesn't seem so pedantic anymore, does it.
>>739351240"They"?
>>739351240see you're using that word wrong again. if a device is bricked it will never work again. we are talking about reinstalling the OS to repair some drivers. that takes less than 10 minutes and doesnt even risk any data loss
>>739351206>you should actually read what the brickware didI did, it's absolutely illegal to brick the firmware on someones hardware remotely. Not even a remotely grey area.
>>739351309Lol
tbf anyone installing a riot game should be killed anyway
If Riot shut down Valorant and League tomorrow the DMA cards would be bricks and Riot would be held liable.
brown bricks
>>739342228>Heino
>>739341209Yeah Riots fucked, that's insanely illegal. That along with the leaks about them spying on people is going to end fucking spectacularly.

>>739350802>If they're bricking the firmware on DMA cards as a pre-emptive anti-cheat measure through their fucking rootkit anti-cheat they are breaking the lawRefer to this post>>739346151The people making these cards are violent criminals, the same way people making Xecuter hardware were violent criminals, no amount of thirdie lying would stop what discovery would uncover. They aren't part of a legit business, they're not part of any consumer rights groups, and because of this, they can't do shit without admitting that they are criminals, which is why they won't do shit, as cheating hardware is one of many things these groups are (illegally) doing. They can bitch and moan online, cite AI-generated gotchas that might imply Riot is in the wrong, call for your death, and demand that their eceleb daddies take a stand, but like stomping on a cockroach, there are zero consequences for bricking non-UL certified hardware from China made to break various lawsI repeat, there are zero - ZERO - consequences for doing this, Golden Woozoo DMA Sunshine Cards Inc would have to actually set-foot in the US and make their case WITHOUT getting immediately arrested, and end-users that try to do it for free domestically would get fucked for aiding and abetting foreign criminals

This is probably the biggest erection they had since WW2>Section 423 of the Criminal Code 2002 outlines the offence of sabotage. A person can be charged with a sabotage offence if they damage another person’s property or if they intend to cause major disruption to another person or entity such as a government body, business or individual. Sabotage can also be technological such as accessing or damaging computer data that you were not authorised to access.
if nanny australia wants to do something riot could always stop operating there and tell them to fuck themselvesprobably won't happen, but would be great
>>739341209>Will someone think of the poor cheaterOP, You are a faggot
>>739352623you can't even define property damage in this anonymous conversation with a bunch of gay retards, and you think you are going to convince a judge of it?
I want to assume riot has ZERO jeet or ai-made code, so this does not end up bricking the pcie port itself, or the other thing thats connected to one AKA the graphics cardnot that i play riot anything since 2014
>>739352623Nigga you are stupid. If RIOT breaking the law, probably yes, but no one will be soo stupid to sue when they were engaging in dumb shit too.

>>739352721This is the equivalent of parking illegaly and instead of getting a ticket you get your car burned down. No, not everything goes because some teen cheated on a fucking game
>>739352612>(the people who enable) cheating in a video game is (funding their operation by) violenceDo you think the term "money laundering" implies a clean operation because it uses washing terminology? When people tried to make Gary Bowser a martyr, they forgot that Xecuter was doing a lot more shit than just "modding", and were dabbling in stealing from cargo containers/shipments and bribing people to look the other way, and considering the DMA card in question is MARKETED TOWARDS ESPORTS FIXERS, then yes, the violent world of Chinese gambling is involved, especially since an industry exists over there to make a cheating-centric card with no questions asked

>>739353014Unsavoury businesses like matchfixing, gambling, hookers etc. Are still controlled by Triads in China and they will break your fingernails and feed you your testicles if you meddle with their business.

>>739341338The League of Legends company forces players to install their proprietary rootkits if they want to play their games. They're now using it to remotely brick your PC and force players to buy new components in a time when RAM, GPUs, storage devices, etc. are both scarce and hyperinflated in value. And they're not even waiting for you to say nigger to do this.
>>739353110>gambling is violence>here's a fucking family guy episode to prove my pointWew lad.
>>739346591Then literally just go to one of the 100+ other servers, there will be at least a few that won't care enough to ban you from them for that reason and most will be extremely easy to find since all you had to do was read the fucking name of the server to figure it out.I played on almost exclusively clan servers and mg servers back in CSS and I had more fun doing that than I've ever had playing ranked in literally any other game because every player knew how to fucking read and thought to themselves >Welp, I guess "NOOBS WELCOME" means that I'll just get kicked or bent for playing-to-win on here, so I won't and I'll just chill or find another serverIt literally is a self regulating system that gives everyone exactly what they want.
>>739342228The anti-cheat still shouldn't have that level of access to an operating system though. That shouldn't be legal. This has further reaching consequences than just a video game anti-cheat.
>>739353214what a strange thing to set up bots to lie about
>>739353253dude you realize you are suggesting self regulation as a solution to a bunch of chinks who would spend thousands of dollars to cheat?

>>739341474Cool. So what about all the false positives this anticheat shits out?
>>739353345Dude, you realize that the chinks won't give a flying fuck if they get bent from 1 out of 100+ servers and will just fuck off to another server forever until they get banned from all of them? The argument is literally about:>1 point of failure vs 100+ points of failureWhen people got banned (for any reason) back when server browsers were a thing they just stayed gone instead of just buying another key and coming back 24 hours later because they had no reason to care they could terrorize other servers until they eventually got bored or ended up on "hack vs hack" servers, besides, there were at least as many cheaters back in the day but they didn't ruin games as much because they were filtered out quicker than they were filtered in if you just played on well regulated servers. This would all be extremely obvious if you actually weren't 5 years old and actually played mp vidya before 2010.
>>739353428>erm my car wasn't actually totaled because the kike at the insurance company underprized my wheels

>>739351943everyone's favourite police department, riot games
>>739353580IMO, server browsers would probably be a better system today because everyone has a computer in their pocket with permanent internet access so keeping tabs on a private server is piss easy, you could just set up an alert for whenever a player tries to contact you and have a shitty laptop set up to spectate the game 24/7 in order to spy on suspected cheaters, then you could just deal with them with a simple console command that you could type on your phone.

>>739354197Sorry, I shouldn't have used a hypothetical with someone who can't imagine breakfast.What I meant is, do you think they will give *anyone* support if a false positive fucks them over? (to clarify, this means not you specifically, so it doesn't matter if you own cheat hardware or not)
Intrusive anticheats are horrible and Vanguard's is one of the worst. Know how if you mod a console (even if you don't cheat online etc) they can basically ban you console on a hardware level? This is what they're trying to do now, with requiring Win11 and the TPM chip (which on most mobos is not independently replaced). Of course its >Its only going to flag cheaters, what are you complaining about, cheater?and then >Its only going to flag cheaters and pirates, your fault for daring to pirate! and go on from there. Note how when one of these anticheats flags someone incorrectly, harms the OS, hardware, or user content outside of the game itself they're continually finding some justification. They want to exert control over your system to their benefit and they'll take any excuse to do so.This issue fucking up DMA / IOMMU devices and/or an OS running them is going to end up doing widespread damage outside of those actively cheating. It reminds me how StarForce (the Denuvo of its day. I was one of many who helped crack it at the time) variants would end up fucking up users of CD/DVD image mounting software AND the drivers / OS components for many physical DVD burners of the day. To start it isn't like this is going to affect many users because such DMA / IOMMU configuration isn't gong to be used widely on typical consumer hardware, but there are use cases. Hell, it wasn't that long ago that a number of anticheats ended up flagging anyone using Wine (and later Proton or any of its components) as cheating, but at least back then "old Blizzard" reacted to Warden (their internal AC for WoW and some other titles) flagging by apologizing, restoring the accts, and then working with Wine and some other Linux components to ensure that their use wouldn't flag anything negatively,.
>>739352815This sounds really reasonable for a video game companyEvidently, they can also brick whatever video games they don't want you to play, like what they did to DeadlockI love malware
