This is the main issue I have with these. Microsoft should be providing this at the platform level, give developers "Xbox Anti-Cheat" and ship it with Windows.



How much of Xbox anti cheat is "can only run signed code"? Might not be compatible with regular PC use but maybe if we had a gaming mode we could boot into.


Not talking about Xbox the console, but Microsoft has been treating Xbox as a general gaming brand (Xbox Game Pass for PC).

Basically just an anti-cheat service that ships with Windows.


No good deed goes unpunished. In the current regulatory environment, that seems like a good way to attract attention from regulators for anti-trust violations.
