Fingers crossed they aren't trying to develop a linux kernel module anticheat because I will never load that crap on anyone's machine.

Even right now, the last standing proprietary blob in my way is Nvidia, which they finally open sourced their kernel driver so if the userspace blob bothers you, you can switch to the upcoming Nova driver from RedHat.

The kernel needs to stay clean. They can do whatever they'd like in userspace.
