Keith Coffin (@IPAINTWITHSHIT) reported@riotgames I wish it was true. Put it in your terms of service and do it. I will be a customer for life.

sheikhbard (@SheiikhBard) reported@_Zizmir @crash @riotgames you are so dumb. its like saying you ONLY deserve to go jail even though you were driving 240km/hr and killed a family of 3 with your car, not only u are going to jail but u are also gonna pay huge fines because your dumbass needs to understand there are consequences, retard

Daniel (@Daniel_OfCanada) reported@serenzxd @idkbruhidkbruh @riotgames To clarify: I’m not saying every BSOD physically damages hardware. I’m saying repeated crashes/hard shutoffs are not harmless, can risk data corruption/system instability, and if Vanguard is triggering them, that’s a serious issue for kernel-level software.

ninjaquick (@danramblesand) reported@dusnrnsukdmwfb @0xaiwa @riotgames An agreement or clause within a contract or license agreement is non-binding, non-inforceable if in order for it to be sustained upheld, followed, or otherwise enforced requires breaking the law. Or that, under the above conditions, it requires allowing a person to break the law against you. And I can't stress this enough, it is against the United States federal communications law. It is an interstate felony to tamper with computer electronic devices attached to a communications bus or network in order to promote or degrade the services or execution of the intended purpose of that hardware or software. Riot has every right to ban cheaters. They should do it as much as they want. Riot has every right to make it so their software cannot launch if their anti-cheat detects an environment which may contain cheat devices. However, no user license agreement or contract can ever allow a company to perform remote device tampering on your system. Remote device tampering here would be that you have downloaded software from their server. It receives frequent definition updates and upon the desires of a remote host, this being on stuff not governed explicitly by the party's interest in the license. In this case, Riot has agreed that you will not make changes to their cheat software or their video game software. right at games, your system has devices disabled without your consent or acknowledgement. You can say that, well, the consent was given, and user license agreement or the contract. And again, I've addressed that. You cannot give a company the right to tamper with your systems through a contract. This has been decided with multiple lawsuits that have been taken to very high-level courts against internet service providers and cellular service providers. If I recall correctly, Microsoft themselves have also been taken to task and lost in court over this. This is established. Licenses and contracts cannot deprive you of your legal protections, even if what you're doing is or grossly an ethical or grossly immoral. What they can do is ban access. What they can do is discontinue service. What they cannot do is tamper with your devices.

Hakuhyo (@scyshw6492) reported@mogisome @hottboy22_ @riotgames And Idk why you’re saying” 3p DMA” like it’s a malicious thing. DMA is perfectly normal piece of h/w. If Riot’s doesn’t like it, then it’s perfectly within their rights to deny the service when it detects it. Just don’t launch the game or even ban if it wants. Both are legal.
-
xenstudio (@xen_studio) reported@WinterCharmVT @eron_wolf @riotgames you're right in that IOMMU targets hardware, not software. But yer last sentence actually describes Ring-0 process isolation, not IOMMU & that kernel-level software policing is exactly where my problem w/ Vanguard As engineer, running debuggers, memory profilers, & CLI tools ...
-
jp811_ (@jp811_) reported@NoahKamara99 @BeardAhWisdom @riotgames Apparently people have to reinstall the OS to fix. If true we know that that isn’t hardware damage, but it’s a near 100% certainty that a jury of normies will view that as damaging someone’s property and break it off in Riot’s backside. That’s the cold reality.
-
Fractured Dawn (@FracDawn) reported@eron_wolf @riotgames If Vanguard depends on low level system features like IOMMU, then bugs or edge cases could cause failures that normal users don’t understand or can’t fix. Even people who have been using it for years mess up and brick their os (fixable but hard) simply to far for a "video game".

JasonMDXLIV🇦🇺 (@JasonMDXLIV) reported@OdjnBluefire @riotgames signing the Eula / terms of service gives them authorization
-
ninjaquick (@danramblesand) reported@dusnrnsukdmwfb @gritsngoblins @riotgames I literally stated that any enforcement is on the service or account level. They can enforce however they like on their own service or software. They can use the kernel to detect anything they like, that is something you've lawfully signed away by being retarded enough to play a riot game. Restricting a device *not in the actioning party's control* from having access to memory *that the user has explicitly desired for it to have access to* is, without explicit user informed consent, 100% illegal.
-
Chris Edwards (@ArsVampyre) reported@marcus_walters @neonghost @riotgames You really don't understand anything. Terms of Service cannot authorize illegal activity.
-
Ronan (@ImJustRonan) reported@riotgames For example my old tower that i use as NAS, X79, i7-3970X extreme, it certainly would shredd the games even today but lack the acces to Vt-d and well they die, again, i dont play but it would be interésting to see how will they address those issues 🤔
-
AbraxasAlpha (@AbraxasAlpha) reported@titoisaltin @riotgames They’re not “litterally bricking your pc” and that’s the problem
-
T.z (@__Tensa_) reported@Bumslaw @baby__frog @riotgames installing the game is optional and it doesn't damage ****, but imo it could very well brick the mb to finish this cheat market all along, war thunder was another game with huge issues with cheaters and it took someone to become an inside agent there to drop the code of the cheat
-
**** (@GtfoZ27) reported@riotgames Ok but can you fix Vanguard on AMD gpus? Whole reason I stopped playing other than burnout was my drivers hard crash and disable my gpu
-
Biscuit (@PaisleyBiscuit) reported@_Zizmir @crash @riotgames Typing buzz words without ever understanding how it actually works. why are people so confidently ignorant now man
-
trut Whut (@Trut_21) reported@riotgames Yeah, no. I'm deleting all riot software as my pc has been repeatedly running into issues post windows 11 update. I know it's vanguard because it keeps telling me I'm having DPC_WATCHDOG ERRORS AND CLOCK_WATCHDOG_TIMEPUT.VGK.SYS. So you can gfys with that last sentence.
-
Miguel Carones (@s3n0rac) reported@snowhound208 @riotgames I know what it allows. The whole point of using the DMA card was to evade those detections that would allow a hardware ban. Hardware bans are not a new thing and if you look back the years, it never solved the cheating problem
-
3of12 (@Threeof12) reported@danramblesand @dusnrnsukdmwfb @riotgames you still haven't described what law is broken or how.
-
ⒶSheep↙️↙️↙️ (@ASheeeep) reported@Cobesssss @Interlukein4 @riotgames And I've personally played games with a cheating problem (looking at CS in particular). Yeah they suck, but the game is never thot serious 😭 you usually encounter them for a game then move on with your life. If you declare because of a cheater, and can't get back up
-
0xNihilo (@NovoNihilo) reported@riotgames It also caused my PC to error crash multiple times this week for Kernel Software error I have the minidump files to prove it
-
Jeemer 🇵🇸 (@JeemerTheMeemer) reported@ironwheal @Dr00n @riotgames The computer isn't broken. Don't cheat and you won't have to reinstall your OS. It's not the anticheat that's causing issues, it's the unauthorized use of cheat hardware. People without that hardware aren't having issues.
-
Fred (@fred6279) reported@BIG_PARMENIDES @riotgames The issue isn't privacy, it is property damage. Vanguard was causing issues with other non-cheating hardware which the average person doesn't know how to fix.
-
FurPeltKishin (@FurPeltKishin) reported@riotgames I've never played Valorant and I've never downloaded any cheats. Most I've done in terms of ANYTHING modding related is Minecraft, yet Vanguard has bluescreened my computer twice recently, once while I was in champ select of a ranked game making me lose LP. ******* why? Fix it
-
Steven Agullo (@StevenAgullo) reported@ngymod @riotgames I am not saying they should "delete it" They simply shouldn't have an anti-cheat that's so invasive. Yes there's other software that can cause issues to the software/hardware on ACCIDENT, this one does it on purpose, that's the actual issue.
-
Amiancht (@Amiancht) reported@TigerBack00ds @SpartanWarGames @riotgames It's not that much of a GRAY area. In Europe, they are going to run into trouble as soon as the first class-action lawsuits are organized. But that takes time. This is a recent development, so patience.
-
HRudyPlayZ (@hrudyplayz) reported@dusnrnsukdmwfb @DonkFast @riotgames Will likely cause issues with SAM/reBAR along many other uses. You don't have to defend a malware company. Vanguard is and always was a trojan rootkit.
-
ジュンジ (@vvi_ri) reported@riotgames "Well, that escalated quickly." Arent supposed to be a reputable company? Also I remember the Vanguard broke many PCs and Riot had to issue an apology....
-
Chowder908 𝕏 (@LazyGenGamers) reported@t3nu3x3 @riotgames Asking ChatGPT how to solve a computer issue doesn't make you a tech genius. Come back when you've spent years repairing computers and fixing electronics for people.
-
Chowder908 𝕏 (@LazyGenGamers) reported@AbraxasAlpha @riotgames Last I check cheating still been a problem is all major games with kernel anticheats. To the point people just stream cheating on twitch. Yeah i'm ignorant because I don't let some trash game company install malware on my PC lol. Steam stays king rest shot themselves in the foot
