Call me an optimist, but "figure that out" could mean game developers stepping up and fixing their games to be more intrinsically robust to cheating. It seems kind of nuts to me that so much development effort has been poured into invasive software that invades the kernel, scans memory, reads the list of running processes, etc. rather than the (admittedly also hard) problem of designing games such that cheat software doesn't work as well.

Reminds me of a company I worked for as a junior dev, not gaming related, where our bread and butter application was hopelessly full of crash bugs, to the point where you couldn't even run it for more than an hour or so continuously without it crashing. Instead of investing in the effort needed to fix the crashers, they instructed me to create a separate "launcher" application that stays resident, waiting for the application to crash, and then re-launching it saving as much state as possible. It felt bonkers to me but I guess it made sense to somebody.
