MODERATORS
Can't wait for this to be generalized so that Easy Anti-Cheat or PunkBuster tell EA or Bethesda to lock your GPU because their faulty launcher detected you tried to play offline twice.
Initially preventing "bad guys" (really big quotes here) to do "bag things" (AFAICT it's mostly lame LLMs, not actual dangerous military stuff, which for those they actually already have supercomputers allocated) sounds like a good idea... until it inexorably tricky down (unlike money and power) to citizens worldwide.
I don't think remotely control CPUs or GPUs can end well for citizens. It won't be PC as in Personal Computer, rather remotely controlled terminals for whomever is in power.
