@gamingonlinux @lutris no, because cheating in video games can be a legitimate way to play the game. free software means cheating resources should not be censored. it is the responsibility of the user to use those tools ethically, in contexts where it is explicitly allowed or at least does not harm anyone, or for the purpose of dealing damage to malicious projects (like pay-to-win servers). if anything, improve server-side anti-cheat measures and security (by means of improving the protocol and the verification of user inputs, not by ridiculous things like trying to verify that the client hasn't been modified), but censorship has never prevented unethical use of tools. It just makes them more inaccessible, thus creating an even larger power imbalance between cheaters and regular users.
@fleckenstein @lutris weโre talking about online games, itโs not ethical to cheat in them, it ruins it for everyone
