MODERATORS
Is this specifically for kernel level anticheat? Because this isn't a thing for software in general right??
It's a thing for any measure said to enforce copyright under the DMCA.
So it's a thing for most proprietary software.
If anything reverse engineering is more permissible in the USA than many other places, IIRC
Not if you're running afoul of the DMCA.
