>Becoming part of a botnet would be pretty bad.
No one is going to turn a game like Genshin into an actual botnet malware, it would be insanely obvious and a complete corporate suicide. It would also ruin China's reputation, so the CCP wouldn't do something so clumsy.
>It would also be pretty bad if they gave your information to corpos that would end with you getting sued to oblivion for having pirated material on your PC.
It's impossible to know for sure what's pirated and what's not; that's why simply having pirated content is not a crime anywhere unless you distribute it. Also, if corpos want your info, they can just ask Google.
>Not to mention that malicious third parties could also exploit the same same exploits. Making your system more vulnerable in general.
I assume you're talking about something like a kernel-level anticheat, and I've no clue how a third party could abuse something like that.
In reality, only those living in China have something to fear from the CCP. Outside of their juristiction, they really couldn't care less about you. Sure, they do collect data like your hardware specs and your geolocation, but literally everyone collects that data, and the only way to opt out is to leave the Internet altogether. Be paranoid about your own government, not the foreign one.
