      Once more someone who doesn’t understand what the fuck a rootkit is spews their uninformed opinions on lemmy.

            If you compromise your system with software that you don’t know and potentially can introduce a backdoor (even involuntary via bugs), you have a rootkit installed.

            If you don’t trust it, don’t install it with admin privileges. Maybe don’t install it at all. Anticheat is a shady business. And mostly not owned by the company that produces the maybe trusted product to be protected.
