Trying to solve cheating this way is totally backwards.
Let people cheat!
Have a reporting system, and if an account gets reported enough times, pitch that account against other suspected cheaters.
Then have a human review their actions if necessary and ban their account.
No need to invest in anti-cheat systems, only observability.

Age verification should be illegal. This world has gone crazy. The ruling cast is infested by predators.

De-listing a plugin just because they don't like what its author said one day is simply shameful.

Oxenfree is being completely removed from itch.io in October

If Itch prevented the publisher from removing the game, the publisher could simply upload a new version of the game binaries that simply does not work and the result would be the same in the end.
Don't blame itch.io, blame the shitty publisher and the shitty music industry and their shitty copyright system.

Quoting: MicromegasAs a customer I don't know who is responsible for this breach of trust. The only thing I know is: I won't buy ANY games anymore from Itch.io. I'm serious. Itch.io is dead for me from this moment onwards.This makes no sense at all. It's the publisher's decicion, Itch is not be blamed here.

Immersion Corporation sues Valve over Steam Deck and Valve Index haptics tech

"Intellectual property" is just plain stupid and should be scrapped altogether.
Valve should also remove haptic modules from their products, they add nothing of value.
