If Apex Legends, CS, and Valorant has taught me anything, it's that anti cheat does not work. Once you start approaching a pro level, cheating becomes rampant.

The cheaters don't make them, they buy them. It really needs a multi factor solution. The technical solution is not enough. Trying to buy cheats should be like trying to buy chemical precursors to illicit drugs. There should be a strong social stigma. Most cheaters have no problem with it because 'everyone else is cheating', justifying their behavior. There was a time when 'everyone else smokes' was justification, but now it's mostly defeated. There should be real world implications. Sign in with your phone number and 2 factor auth, which is located to a physical address. Cheating is a form of fraud. There should be legal implications.

oh my. Seeing your posts makes me sincerely want to lobby to ban video games at least if adding additional liabilities to distributing software or computing devices were actually a direction that the games industry was promoting.

We need to stop letting stupid entertainment companies trample our rights to narrowmindedly maximize their profits.

Totally agree, both should be absolutely legal and accepted
