Technically they don't deny access to the game. The game runs with Proton, but you can't connect to the EAC secured servers.

I don't play rust does it support private servers out of box?

[–] turdas@suppo.fi 29 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Yes it does, and there are at least some non-EAC servers with a whitelist system that Linux users can play on.

And that's honestly how all anticheat should work: opt in if you're okay with the spyware, or don't if you're comfortable finding a other solution.

This should be the top comment.

I don't play the game but I think that's an acceptable compromise.
