Invasive Anti-Cheats
I am well aware that cheats for games have become extremely sophisticated. But I don't think the answer to detecting kernel-mode cheats is by installing a kernel-mode anticheat.
I feel that the arguments regarding user privacy and security have been stated many, many times, so I won't talk too much about that, as it's somewhat obvious why people who are concerned with privacy would not want such software installed on their computer.
I'm not particularly well-versed in how anticheats work. But I would imagine that it's not impossible for a user-mode anticheat to detect a kernel-mode cheat. I mean, some anticheats are completely server-sided (the Hypixel minecraft server for example).
If someone wants to cheat on your game, they are going to figure out a way to cheat on your game. And you're going to have to rely on behavioral analysis anyway, right? The only thing you do is make it so that the cheats that do work on your game are likely going to be more expensive.
I think it's very unlikely that there's going to be a large enough pushback by the player bases of these games that would result in them changing how their anticheats work. Which means that for any change to happen, it would likely have to be a government body choosing to regulate how anticheats or other types of software are allowed to function. I have no idea if that would be detrimental to certain software that has a legitimate reason to exist, but that would be up to lawmakers, I guess. Obviously this doesn't seem to be something that lawmakers are particularly concerned with (likely because they have no idea what an anticheat even is), but it would be nice for there to be some bigger moves in the direction of less invasive anticheats.
