Multiplayer Windows games in general ship anti-cheating software implemented as kernel modules that are more invasive than even draconian DRM.

I've played several multiplayer games for Windows and I've only seen Fortnite do this.
Many "serious" multiplayer games will feature this. I mean VAC, EasyAntiCheat, BattlEye. They all have a kernel module component.
