Of course you understand that that is not a reasonable solution.

There are gaming consoles, or you can just not run their games, it's not like there aren't literally thousands to choose from. They're also just games, cheating is not a life or death thing, or it shouldn't be.

Alternatively, you could stream a game from a remote server like on Stadia. These anti-cheat systems are only for online games anyway, and you can let Google deal with their kernel driver.

I didn't write a comment suggesting a thing because I considered it unreasonable and on reflection, no, I don't think it's unreasonable.
Can't you just run two oses alongside each other?
"annoying" when dealing with graphics cards / passthrough if you're talking about virtualization and probably would not be allowed since the hypervisor would be a ring above the kernel module, effectively neutering it.

If you mean dual-boot, sure, that's a very reasonable solution as well. I just don't like to reboot often and would personally have a 2nd computer as it probably takes me an hour or more to go from "booted" to "productive"
