Well, nice. Rape is no resistance.

Why? Because it's so plain in sight that everybody knows about it? I doubt it.

I mean every american president should be at least arrested for warcrimes? Maybe Trump is an exception.

I haven't seen the contract between google and firefox.

Maybe "how you develop the software" is a bit far-fetched, I was more thinking about decide where to put efforts into e.g.: continue developing Firefox's core mechanic of being a privacy oriented webbrowser instead of... whatever they are doing with the funding they get.

But thats exactly how they work currently? Google is the default search engine in firefox.

Feels kind of weird, if thats the case how did Linux come as far as it is today?

I don't know. Crowdfunding? How does Thunderbird keep it self afloat? Maybe better integration of the community as in more say in what will be developed depending on how much money you donate etc.

Taking funding from your biggest competitor is a weird business choice.

So yeah, I want to discuss or point out why I think Valve needs to fix Anti-Cheat issues. They have VAC but apparently its doing jackshit, be it Counter Strike 2 (any previous iterations) or something like Hunt: Showdown the prevalence of cheating players is non deniable. For me personally it has come to a point that I am not enjoying playing those games anymore, although they are great games by itself. But the amount of occurrences being killed or playing against cheaters is at a height, where I don't see the point anymore.

  • Why I think Valve is the only company able to something against cheaters?

Because they have the tools with VAC already aiming to prevent cheaters. Valve has got the resources to actually invest into something more profound which could be used for any game where anti-cheat protection needs to be implemented. And lastly Valve is the company which is interested in furthering the ability to gaming on Linux, the anti-cheat solution needs to work on both operating systems. Only Valve has the motivation and means to achieve that with their knowledge and resources. What do you guys think about the topic? Is the fight against cheaters hopeless? Do you think some other entity should provide anti-cheat protection, why? I skimmed over "anti cheat in linux kernel" posts in the net, but I have very little knowledge about the topic, what is your stance on it?

Edited: Mixed EAC with VAC. EAC seems to be part of Epic Company. Both of these tools seem unable to prevent cheating like mentioned above.
