"Intermediaries" could mean platforms or publishers. Did they specify?

Off-topic but does anyone know if the renewed 32bit PhysX support is also coming to the Linux driver? They never cover gaming stuff in their Linux release notes.

Anti-cheat will still be one of the biggest problems for the new Steam Machine

It's funny how they admit that KLACs don't solve the cheating problem any more than other system, but have just dug themselves in so far that they don't see any problem with that, just imposing ever more restrictive requirements like Secure Boot and TPM. These don't even deal with cheating methods outside the OS like display assist tools.
I foresee a backlash in the not-too-distant future where people see how much cheating is still going on, especially given how much developers have touted KLACs as the be-all-end-all of anti-cheat.

Community made wrappers have been around for a while. The ThirteenAG fixes are released under an MIT license so I'm guessing they just used that.
