I suggest to create petition request to warm user (during installation), when game is installed. This warning should be shown in additional step, showing in on license is not enough. User must agree to it as on license.
Kernel-level-anti-cheat is spying software. Children are not conscious about risk or install this kind of spying software to be able to play games. Kernel-level-anti-cheat works even game is not running, often after game was removed and spying other users too (not only user, who install software). Because of spying each user of computer, also parents and siblings are spying. Someone may install game on libraries or internet cafe, so also other people, who uses this computers, will be spying.
Anti-cheat often records running/installed programs and input from mice/keyboard.
I suggest to send petition to European Union.
What do you think?
Informing users about risk of installing game with kernel-level-anit-cheat could prevent from using it by software vendors and made playing games on Linux just better.
