    Does there need to be a solution?
    Do E-Sports competitions on identical certified hardware and otherwise ban people caught cheating.
    Root kits aren’t necessary for having fun in a game.

      lol, anti-cheat isn’t just about esports, or high level play. It’s not even just about cheating.

      It’s broadly about harassment and griefing and just shitty behavior mediated by hacking in online games.
