Steam store page legal flags:

Screenshot of the Delta Force Steam page's legal warnings. The game requires linking a third-party account, kernel level anti-cheat, and accepting a third-party EULA

They ought to make these red. I get that's a tough sell for the publisher, but as a consumer a kernel-level anti-cheat is an immediate turn-off

Free game, China, kernel level anticheat. Risky for a PC with any personal or sensitive data on it.

What an abysmal site, I had to scroll past so many ads I now wish my instance had downvotes. There were 19 ads in front of the article

Why are you browsing the web without an ad blocker?
