Can we do something like reporting Denuvo or the kernel anticheats as malware in Windows defender?
A game with a built in system lever logger that could theoretically monitor even your bank transactions should be reported as spyware/malware and users installing it should have to expressly acknowledge / authorise this.
Normally I would say that Microsoft wouldn’t care and they would just make an exception, but after the CrowdStrike error, they might be just a little bit more careful. Or maybe I have too much faith in them
Yeah Susan, I'm sure Microsoft TOTALLY learned their lesson from the Crowdstrike incident. Y'know, since they've never had an anti-malware company cause worldwide outages because of a configuration error before.
