arXiv:2609.20909v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multiplayer PC gaming on Linux faces a structural problem: the anti-cheat systems that publishers require operate as proprietary Ring 0 kernel modules that are architecturally incompatible with Linux's security model, GPL licensing, and stable ABI guarantees. We argue the right response is not to port these invasive modules to Linux, but to replace them entirely.
