is it possible to make a program uninstall itself if the user does a specific action?

Its possible. I remember some game called VBS2 Lite that would uninstall itself if you friendly fired.

based, how difficult is it to implement such a thing? i would assume invoking an uninstall would require superuser privileges no matter what

Either have the game not install per se, it's a portable app that can be deleted by a regular user, or have the program con the user into running it as admin because "we need it for some drm shit" which is technically true.

not if you just install into %localappdata% like a lot of nu-apps do nowadays (they do it so they can force-updoot without asking for permission)
