It's more so that Riot fixed Microsoft's fuckup by patching a security flaw.

Not Riot's job nor has anyone knowingly authorised Riot as the party to do this. Riot has no place touching anything beyond their own software ecosystem.

But can you be more specific about 1) what the damage is, 2) who's responsible, and 3) how it would hold up in court?

1) Inability to access one's OS for all affected users, and on an individual level data loss (where applicable) and/or financial or other damages as a result of lack of access or data loss (where applicable)
2) Riot, with intent
3) It won't because such cases never hold against software companies no matter how egregious. If actually taken to court by a state, it would be about disabling user's access to their OS as a side effect of their intentional change, and cases of data loss or actual damages would have to be individual civil cases

This statement doesn't mean anything. What damage did Riot do by configuring your OS to enforce IOMMU policy properly? An actual SATA/NVMe device faulting as a result would be due to its own shitty firmware acting out of line. Nonetheless, you'd be able to plug said device into another computer without issue.

You should know more about the software you willingly install onto your machine. Riot can be sued for tangible, legal damages, but preventing unauthorized access to their games using non-destructive means is within their rights.

What makes it a nothingburger is that damages haven't been presented. It's all hypotheticals or spectacular reframing.
Also, I realize I made a mistake by not asking you to explain how memory protection enforcement equals data loss or financial damages.
If anything, you, as the cheater, should be sued by Riot Games.

Valorant looks it would have been called a Concordlike if it were released five years later.

I... I didn't know. I didn't realize what I was supporting.

Riot must fall.

Since I use Linux this sort of malware doesn't even run on my PC.

It would be nice if people could come this hard against the kernel anti cheat in Marvel Rivals or Helldivers 2 but they don't require a restart and don't scare the autists enough

for marvel rivals and helldivers 2 the anticheat doesn't run in the kernel in linux
can't recommend linux to valorant players but if this was the helldivers 2 or marvel rivals thread that would be an option if you didn't want to give up your vidya games but also didn't want to give up ownership of your pc

My analogy lines up with the facts of the situation.

Noo. It is completely retarded and nonsensical and you're a complete retard writing nonsense and going off on tangents hoping nobody would notice that you don't actually have an argument.

I have zero respect for a retard who simps for shitty corporations and I won't indulge your retardation any further by replying. I should have stopped much earlier.

Invasive, proprietary software isn't a good thing, so I limit my exposure to it. But I also prefer not to 3rd-party other people's decision to interact with it.

You are also a complete fucking retard, and this one paragraph completely destroys any case you've tried to build for the entire thread.

"Fucking people over is bad, but I don't want to stop it because FREEDUMB!" No, retard, they shouldn't be allowed to sell people garbage that hurts them in the first place because its tantamount to theft. That's why consumer protection laws exist.

I have zero respect for you either, and the whiny, self-pitying, moralizing and passive aggressive bullshit you tried to throw at me makes it clear you're a whiny crybully in edition to being a retard.

You two retards seriously came to this thread to defend corporations fucking people in the ass and then acted surprised when people called you corpo simps and retards. Treating you like rational adults is a waste of everyone's time.

Nobody should take either of you seriously, and everyone should just make fun of you.

TL;DR:

You have absolutely no concept of what is going on and are incapable of acknowledging a nuanced opinion. Post hands.

"You have absolutely no concept of what is going on, baka! You are incapable of acknowledging a nuanced opinion like a true intellectual. Post hands, so that they might meet my blade!"

I wonder how much of the inevitable Mad at the Internet segment on this will just be Null going "holy shit, look at the retards on my board actually defending this shit. I am so fucking embarrassed these people use my site."
