    I wonder if Riot would provide any info on the ban status of a certain component when given its ID…

      They would not.

      Anyone doing anti-cheat stuff tries to keep it as secret as possible, so that the cheaters have a more difficult time working around it.

        It sounds like at least one cheater already figured it out. Just swap the chips. Then sell the old one used and pass the problem onto someone else.

          From the article, it tracks and blacklists other major system components too, so you would essentially have to replace most of your system. Probably the entire thing, since a single leftover bad component would lead to your entire new system being added to the blacklist.

            That actually explains why they do not want linux users,I could just modify my OS to not give the right IDs Welp, Unless they made their thingy from scratch instead of using a system component which at that point idk how you would approach it
