Kernel level anti-cheat is making me consider to move away from PC gaming for multiplayer games, which I already boycott on principle. Yes, it would mean lower performance, less input flexibility and paying for the privilege of playing online - but there’s the peace of mind of knowing China, Saudi Arabia, the US or whomever else isn’t rummaging through my passwords and personal data

I understand why are they trying to do so, but it still feels odd to see a project removing GPL’d code
The concept of Unix-based distributions predates GNU/Linux by the way - BSD stands for Berkeley Software Distribution.
