I don’t think anyone is suggesting Riot would do anything underhanded.

Ironically, the idea that only Riot will ever be able to leverage the capabilities of this software service is probably why many don’t mind running it.

Unfortunately, that idea is flawed for the much the same reason the idea of backdooring encryption algorithms is flawed.

Just wait until someone finds a vulnerability in Riot's anti-cheat software and abuses it for more sinister purposes. No software is ever completely bug-free.
