That's the issue with rootkits """anti cheat""" or """DRMs""", if they want (or someone who happens to work there wants), they can literally fuck your machine, nevermind having control over it.

Never install rootkits kids, you're playing with fire. Riot or Ubishite or whatever do not care about you and aren't trustworthy enough.

Hackers have been using a card which slots into their PC on the Sata or NVME protocol connection that allows them to bypass anti cheat and run hacks with complete impunity.
The box that does this is 6000 dollars.
Vanguard (Riot Anticheat) has made a fix that detects these cards and disables the firmware for them essentially bricking the hacking card.
The OS is also affected but can be fixed with a reinstall.
This only targets this specific hacking card and the only people who have been bricked are hackers that have spent 6000 dollars to hack at Valorant.

>>739373906
This doesn't affect me because I never played a Riot game.

riots kernel level malware flips a switch in winderps that disables DMA hardware
technically not a hard brick since reinstalling windows fixes it
but its absolutely a soft brick and retarded because
>its riot
>this shit can extend past DMA cards, like 'bricking' your monitor if they (or more accurately someone pissed or a hacker) decides to say fuck you in particular

imo this shit is the same crap as linkin_park_numb.mp3.exe deleting system 32
fixable, but malware anyway you cut it
>>
>>739375128

>>
>>739375103
>disables the firmware
i really dont believe they cant reset it to default setting
>>
>>739375103
How does the card's firmware get bricked? Does it get force flashed or something?
>>
>>739375128
Its targeting whatever FPGA device you use, if its emulating a storage device thats NVMe/SATA then they'll brick it.

So basically yes they can sue riot but its a rare case, because it didn't destroy their hardware just caused them to reinstall their OS, it says in TOS you agree to the software destroying your PC and waiver your rights to class action lawsuit anyway.

Whatever Riot is doing is effective enough to fuck the firmware up enough that it bricks the card. Windows also gets fucked in the process and needs a reinstall. Don't ask me how they're doing it but that's what riot is saying.
The bricking isn't even the big part of it though. That's just the icing on the cake. In reality Riot anticheat can detect these third party cards now making them completely useless whether they were getting bricked or not.

Never had issues with Ubislops when it came to their service. Don't trust low-trust economy zone cheat engines though (China/Russia) backed, they are known scammers and hackers. Their governments have all the hackers on their payroll for anti-west activities. Easy Anti-Cheat is worse than Ubislop's Battle-Eye. EAC is literally crack for anyone to get access to your computer and the devs don't care because they allow it for the Chinese to access your computer. Ubislop is shit for other reasons and I don't play much of their games because of that.

since its on your end of the server, its not really /that/ much impactful in the grand scheme of things unlike being able to fuck with bits on the server side

>Just spend $500 and buy/install extra hardware on your own personal computer because your government says they own it instead of you bro
The real answer is to stop this bullshit from gaining traction in the first place. People should make it clear that they'd be willing to leave Windows if OS Age verification becomes law. That should scare Microsoft enough to lobby against it, and they're big enough to make a difference. The only way to win is to pit the rich oligarchs against each other.

>>739376423

When you sign up to play these online games, you have to agree to the terms and services. You violate those terms and services, all that goes out the window.

They're not bricking anything. They just mess with the firmware, just reflash the card and it works again. Thing is, you can't use that device with Vanguard installed in your machine.

Again, and I can't state this any clearer, they completely fucked themselves out of any legal defense of blaming people with DMA devices because they were stupid enough to brag about it after the fact on social media.
This is why companies just sue cheaters for cheating on their games on their official servers.
Way safer and even if morally objectionable as egregious civil restitution over the type of offense as it is, you don't open yourself to getting sued in return.

This is water under the bridge. The fact that Vanguard exists validates everything they do to your PC. The mistake was installing Vanguard, not getting your pc bricked by them.
If you installed it, you automatically agreed to them do whatever the fuck they want with your machine. It is like installing windows 10 and be mad that they track you. It is like Using discord and mad that they leak your information every week.

Don't do that, you will fuck your SSD for nothing. Reinstalling windows, you delete every partition of the main drive and start a new one. That will sufice. Vanguard is not a sleeping cell awaiting command from remote servers scanning every device shown in Shodan.

If you mean hacker news, that's because Cloudflare paid the to suppress the story and ran counter intelligence on there denying it whenever it was brought up. If you used anything that wasn't Chromium based or Firefox it would load actual malware on your system. I use Palemoon so I got affected by it personally as did anyone else using it.

>Vangaurd isn't "bricking" the DMA device. What's happening is that a built-in Windows security feature is being triggered which prevents the device from being used for cheating. Any instances of PCs "bricking" seems to be caused by Windows and the Card having issues with each other and can be completely fixed by removing the card. The PC still functions otherwise if you remove the DMA card, and this trigger can be reset by removing Vanguard and reinstalling Windows on the device. So it's neither being bricked, nor is it being done by Vanguard itself.

I dont get this statement. The people that say it want to frame it as the company is on some crazy power trip and they'll ban even good users if there's no outrage at them. But it's not some arbitrary criteria that Riot picked to brick people, it's people maliciously hacking their systems and breaking TOS for advantages. It's not happening to normal users.

>Well, it's not happening right -NOW- to you, but...

The sun could blow up tomorrow too, but you dont live your life that way every day. This isn't oppression, they wouldnt have a fucking product if it banned normal users. No, Riot will never intentionally ban normal users. They will not wake up one day and brick your PC "just because". You are a loser and a faggot cheater, get fucked.

It's quite simple. The kind of sad, shameless person that would be desperate enough to buy a $6000 cheating card just to cheat at video games harder is also the kind of person who will use absolutely any kind of argument tactic, including every logical fallacy in the book and plain old outright lying, in order to lash out at the company that takes away their cheating ability, in a desperate attempt to somehow fight back against having their cheating toy taken away.

That's literally all that's happening right now. Cheaters are seething that their cheating toys are going to stop working and so they're spamming every platform they can with lies and angry stories to try and generate as much backlash against riot as they can.
/v/ just happens to be filled with /v/aIvedrones, so plenty of them are siding with the cheaters because they also have a pre-existing anti-riot agenda and don't care if any of it's true or not as long as it can potentially generate backlash against riot.

But in the end it's nothing more than little children in adult bodies throwing a temper tantrum into an uncaring void that doesn't care how much they scream, it's not giving them their cheating toy back.

If you spent less time on the internet seething about your cheats being taken away, and practiced at games more instead, maybe you wouldn't need the cheats to begin with.

Riot employees are going into absolute damage control mode on twitter right now.

VERY enjoyable to harass them over it right now.

Never understood hacking/cheating in multiplayer games, like you get a program to do everything for you and you're not even playing the game anymore.
You could get the same experience just googling the game's "You Win!" screen

The only people this affects are cheating Chinese, Indians, and Slavs (so not people), is there actually any damage to control? We actually have thirdie retards claiming their DMA cards have ACTUAL legit uses other than cheats, they're admitting to this shit themselves, Riot doesn't need to do anything

The funny thing about this conversation is that no matter how hard the cheaters seethe, no matter what they say, nothing can change the fact that their cheatbox is never going to work again and they're never getting their $6000 back.

It's like being insulted by midget in a wheelchair. It doesn't matter what they say, they've lost from the very inception of the interaction.

Given the amount of crying I am seeing about this I am guessing it was effective? Given cheaters that get banned usually go

Ect, ect.

>>739404671
you must be insane if you think that everybody who sees a problem with this bought a retarded $6000 cheat card.
way too many people are speaking out.

>>739404592
is this new screenshot ? even before the rootkit all they did was checking for all program with "cheat engine" word.
Was already highly illegal because they could just read your password and all
>>
>>739404671
maybe you aren't talking exclusively to cheaters that got banned

I literally just took this screenshot, I was just about to run some ARAM matches. I've always had cheat engine installed because I use it to increase sliders past the maximum on h-games. Also

You'd be fucking shocked how much money gets thrown around by cheaters. We're well beyond the "little timmy joins a CS server with an aimbot" days.
I knew someone involved with making cheats for wow back in wrath/cata and people were dropping hundreds for that shit.
