Well, it’s a driver and it runs in the kernel with system level privileges. I imagine as long as it remains installed the computer will be vulnerable to whatever is in there. And it’s undecypherable compiled code so we can’t tell what it is doing. I suspect shady bits will use the TPM cryptoprocessor to hide any malicious code so we’ll never know what is in there.
Even if you uninstall it, it just says it is uninstalled but it’s not like you can verify if it really uninstalled it or just renamed the files to something innocuous.
I will re-install windows entirely as if it had been infected by malware, and I just hope there’s a way in Steam to identify all EA games and block them from every installing even by accident
install Linux… I use arch btw
I use windows 10 and debian 13 on proxmox 9 !
