From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

There's no way to completely avoid cheaters and I really don't get why there's so many windows games that want Kernelmode access. You could still read the memory and emulate inputs based on that or draw something on the screen. It's probably just causing the cheaters who want to download something and win to get more viruses (which most probably deserve assuming the viruses aren't too bad), while the game company gets closer to being indistinguishable from a virus itself.
Oh wow, I'm curious how they detect spoofed hardware.
