The twitter post is a reply, not even it’s own post.

A sample size of 1 isn’t really meaningful.

Also, this post is refuting a claim that isn’t really being made? At least not literally.

I don’t understand the point the posts are trying to make. If an attacker can get at the SQL database, they must have remote access, i.e. the system is compromised somehow. What’s stopping them from getting at anything else? Why should we concerned about the database specifically?

More and more games are shipping with mega sus kernel level anti cheat which can (and does according to their EULA) take screenshots and files from your PC to make sure you “aren’t cheating”.

Valorant, for example, is made by riot, owned by tencent, owned by the Chinese government, and has a nasty kernel anti cheat in it.

So this means that with essentially no effort or changes the Chinese gov can just take this file and related screenshots of everything you do wrapped in a bow

And they 100% will do this.

and the US goverment already has your data!

I don’t know why everyone is so afraid of China getting their data. I mean the US is not good either.

A little rabid, but entirely likely.

I think the point might be that any other program on your pc can access that db. Which would obviously be very bad. If that is the case I would think it would be patched.

I love the different attitudes the first line of the posts has.
