Software/game DRM/anticheat (as a service/product) that involves code obfuscation and/or kernel driver.
It is an anti consumer practice wrapped in pro consumer propaganda.
The thing is that there are other choices and people need to start voting with their feet. Do you really need to buy 12th of call of duty?
Asking for a friend.
I haven't played cod for at least 10 years I think.
It works well for the developers. Denuvo games take a while to get cracked (if ever). Valorant cheats are really expensive.
Denuvo also prevents easy modding in many cases, causes issues on top of increasing system requirements. Valorant cheats possibility destroys the purpose of the system. But at least valorant anticheat is not being sold as a service to other devs I think.
The worst (best?) part is that they usually don't even stop piracy, just waste resources.
