This is so funny because rust has one of the worst cheating situations and majority of their players are windows users, and theres lots of games that have anticheat that allows linux and have notably less significant cheating problems like marvel rivals. in reality rust doesn't take cheating very seriously because if they did they would have more server side software that detects illegitimate behaviour like tons of other games do successfully...... even most popular Minecraft servers have better functioning anti cheat that is completely server side than rust has while getting kernel access to your pc. its pathetic and lazy development tbh and this entire post from them reads like such extreme cope....
I've come across many, is it annoying? Sure. Is it the end of the world? No. You just leave the lobby/server and go in a fresh one.
No cheating is bad enough to justify a rootkit.
I've also been called a cheater a lot and they always sound very convinced even though they have no idea at all. I imagine these are the same people constantly complaining about cheating.
