    This my greatest joy, i constantly need to justify not installing LoL to my friends because of Riots shitty anti-cheat. This proves that kernel-level is just unnecessary. And ive always wondered how you can claim it grants any protection at all when MacOS users can play without it? Its not like you couldnt cheat on a MacBook.

      Yes, I used to bot league of legends and still have contact with people that do it to this day. Botters just switched to hackintosh VMs to circumvent Vanguard

        It feels very nice knowing that my assumption was not completely bonkers. Thanks for confirming my sanity 🙏

        Although, then I wonder, what is even the purpose of Vanguard apart from data collection? Because this attack-vector clearly negates the entire purpose of Vanguard.

        Its just jokes, no hard feelings ❤️ Although it is annoying that they just accept spyware to play a game, but hey, thats their choice
