Why should I care about cattle and their stupidity? They already supported adding malware anti-cheat to every single multiplayer game and I'm minority so developers don't care about me.

Am I happy about this? Not at all. Can I do something? Nothing either. All I can do is to ignore.

Isn't secure boot on by default both in Windows and in your bios? Why are people disabling secure boot, even if you dualboot it's easy to setup on Linux. It just makes sure what you're booting hasn't been tampered with, if you're UEFI booting it's always recommended to keep enabled

If you clear the keys through your bios it should go into setup mode without needing to disable it which you can boot whatever you want at that point and itll stay that way till you enroll keys (windows does this automatically) although it can be a little confusing on how to do get into setup mode with some motherboards

In general any driver that passes the WHQL/HLK tests will probably get signed and it's easy to hide a rootkit in your innocent looking driver if you know what you're doing. No normal company is going to do this because it will instantly destroy your reputation, but random state sponsored chink vidya devs don't care about that.

Impossible to solve. Why don't people just accept there is a reason why Valve does what it does? Putting value on trustworthiness of an account over policing users computers.

FYI if you turn off secure boot, it just means additional programs can be loaded. It doesn't turn off Microsoft approved apps.

It's like the difference between having a front door lock where only Microsoft gives out keys, or no lock at all.

Literally all serious CS2 players are using 3rd party matchmaking with a (shitty) kernel AC due to rampant cheating at a top level. Valve's real goal is AI based AC. But nothing substantial has came from their decade of effort, yet.
VAC is legit pathetic. I remember you could completely disable it with a certain DLL injector. Cheats could go undetected for years.

Basically. The goal is to prevent booting "tampered" OSs. So an AC can know that it can trust the OS itself.
Any changes would require a trusted signature.

I don't really care about vulnerabilities, like using anti-cheats to fuck up your PC. Someone dedicated enough will do it regardless (or, more likely, they'll just swindle me the old fashioned way, that's much easier to do than to be a modern hackerman).
What I do care about is that every new anti-cheat, ironically, becomes a shield for cheaters to hide behind. "Dude, I'd be banned already if I cheated". "Game is IMPOSSIBLE to cheat in, get off my ass". Maybe, maybe, less people will cheat overall, but those that persist and succeed have more and more social power handed over to them, all because
A) Devs want to hold total control over their games and how they are played
and
B) Devs cannot realistically exert said control and are shit at properly moderating their games

If someone is using a custom key for their Secure Boot, that is the only legitimate reason not to use Windows signed keys for Secure Boot. Or if they are doing some weird shady shit with their system requiring unsigned kernel level software (which they should use their own custom Secure Boot keys anyway).

Otherwise, if someone has Secure Boot off, they're retarded. A lock that some people can access is far better than no lock at all.

They absolutely could use fully server-side anti-cheat solutions and general approach, but they don't want to, because it costs their servers more performance (and hence they would need to get more servers, which means spending more money on operations instead of cost saving), and it would also influence the performance of all the actual clients playing through those servers, regardless of how good the client PCs and their networks are.

Considering that private keys constantly get leaked, forcing Riot to maintain their own list of vulnerable keys, I'd say it's about the same.
Ideally, I'd want to have multiple trusted providers. Since MSFT seems to give a key to just about anyone for a price. How is Red Hat not a trusted provider? Gotta beg MSFT.

You do know all computers sold at stores come with secure boot and windows 11 preinstalled and enabled, don't you?
These people literally bought a computer years ago that came with those things, never cleaned or reinstalled the windows and installed the game, if you ever in you're life used an alternative operating system, you'd know secure boot is the most garbage shit to ever exist, and no, this won't prevent a single hacker from ruining matches, since the principal platform for hacking is and always will be windows, with whatever the hell shit they implement on top of it, or how much they blame linux for being "hackers".

i went through the process of converting my drive to gpt and enabling secure boot and it wasn't difficult, the game is seemingly good enough to where i feel like my time wasn't wasted
that being said seeing people pretending to be cool with this shit (along with TPM 2.0) and smug as if anyone who doesn't enjoy having more unnecessary horseshit forced down their throat is just too stupid to figure it out or too poor for a motherboard made post 2017
the game just has a flag of secureboot=0 or secureboot=1 and if you don't have it you can't play, it doesn't do anything fundamentally required to play the thing, it isn't stopping hackers as they're already in the playtest with working mod menus
i'd bet people would be more receptive to these changes if the series didn't have a total of like 4 total flop dogshit titles before it

The reason for every shill telling you otherwise is because they want to cheat in video games. Modern cheats need to bypass some kernel level things and require secure boot to be off, that's it.

Any other reasons are either too niche to matter or fabricated in order to create a greater pushback so that cheaters can continue to cheat.

I built my PC in 2022 and Secure Boot wasn't enabled by default. TPM 2.0 was though. This is on a Alder Lake MSI motherboard running in UEFI mode with Windows 10 on a GPT drive. So basically everything was in place for it but its still deactivated. Haven't bothered to even try enabling it though. I'll worry about it when I get around to updating to Windows 11 in the near future.
