alt Hacker NewsI'm sure this company is more focused on the enterprise angle, but I wonder if the buildout of support for remote attestation could eventually resolve the Linux gaming vs. anti-cheat stalemate. At least for those willing to use a "blessed" kernel provided by Valve or whoever.

Only by creating a new stalemate between essential liberty and a little temporary security — anticheat doesn't protect you from DMA cheating.

I sincerely hope not.
Road to hell is paved with good intentions.
Somebody will use it and eventually force it if it exists and I don't think gaming especially those requiring anti-cheat is worth that risk.
If that means linux will not be able to overtake window's market share, that's ok. At-least the year of the linux memes will still be funny.
