It's a good thing that Microsoft has never signed an anticheat kernel module that turned out to be so vulnerable that some malware installed it on purpose to gain more system access.

Thanks for the link. I read the GP's comment, and was thinking that was an ballsy if not hilarious move on the hacker's part. Your link saved me the trouble of searching. I'm not a gamer, so I don't keep up with these details. Whether you like it or not, the cheat devs are definitely HN level types
