due to the lack of a fully secure environment in the OS
Allowing kernel-level access to programs is the exact opposite of a “fully secure environment”.
The “reasons” these publishers give to force kerbel-level anti-cheat onto players are complete fabrications to cover up the fact that they’re too cheap/lazy to implement server-side anti-cheat and also want to monitor your computer to sell your data
I know server side anti-cheat is way better but at this point the only way to stop kernel anti-cheats from being the “best” way is government regulation. Literally no one cares about the security concerns of something like Riot Vanguard knowing everything you do on your computer, and server side anti-cheat has a more expensive overhead and suits aren’t going to want to spend more money.
