Genuinely curious, because this isn't my area of expertise, but how do you design a server to be "better" if it has to trust data from a remote client?

Example, if the client is compromised - because as they've said, they have no way to "attest" that the kernel is not compromised - how would the server know any better?

If my Apex client tells the server I got a perfect headshot, how would the server know I didn't fake the data? Is there a real answer to this problem or are we just wishing they come up with an impossible solution?

My general understanding is that EA is 100% correct. Now, on the other hand, maybe the should just limit plays between Linux <-> Linux so people can at least still enjoy the game (I'm moving to Linux soon so I'll basically no longer be able to play the game, which is, as my primary gaming addiction, a huge loss I'm willing to take).

There's compromises EA could take, but I think the Linux market share is just too small for them to care to spend any resources - even though they're raking in billions (~$3.4 Billion) and could spare a few resources to find a good middle ground. Capitalism at it's finest.

yes. use any of the following, in no particular order:

• ecosia.org - A non-profit certified B corp that plants trees by serving ads in your search results. Bing search underneath.
• duckduckgo.com - A privacy friendly search engine. Primarily sourced from Bing but mixes in a few other sources.
• any SearXNG instance - A self-hostable search front-end to various search engines.
• marginalia.nu - specifically 'random' - An independent DIY search engine that focuses on non-commercial content, and attempts to show you sites you perhaps weren't aware of in favor of the sort of sites you probably already knew existed.

... but worse!

What do terrorist holding hostages have to do with the indiscriminate murder, displacement and starvation of innocent women and children? Genuinely curious. Cops don't kill innocents when there's a hostage situation, why is Israel allowed to commit genocide in this situation? Can you explain?

Significantly overblown. Most of the opened github issues were by the same person. Seems someone doesn't like it and is trying to spam the issue and frame it as a bigger deal than it really is.

CLI's are likely not specifically the target. I suspect the CLI is just the "low hanging fruit" and core set of software that needs to be supported before you build up to a fully functional GUI apps.

I'm sure they'll exercise caution in this endeavor /s

Not necessarily.

They engineer solutions that don't exist anywhere else in the market to ensure they have as little information on you as possible while keeping you secure [0]. This in turn means high compensation + benefits. You don't want to be paying your key developers peanuts as that makes them liable to taking bribes from adversaries to "oops" a security vulnerability in the service. In addition, the higher compensation is a great way to mitigate losing talent to private organizations who can afford it.

If they're just starting this might be their moment to show off something they're picking up as they go - don't shit on that. And advertise? It's a free/open code. It's a show and tell, let them be proud. Maybe in a few year's they'll build the next open source, federated Spotify competitor. For now, let them bask in the glory of making something fun.
