>The xz backdoor was successfully caught before it landed in mainstream release branches
What? It literally got included with several distros. It wasn't caught before it shipped to end users. Just because it got caught before slower to update distros got it, that doesn't mean it is okay. It reveals how low the barrier is for an anonymous person to get code into the OS.
>I never claimed you should have the right to cheat against other players.
Attestation doesn't take away your ability to modify and run software which means that you still have freedom 0 and 1. It just means that you can not prove to a remote server that you bare running unmodified software. To me you were implying that the server being able to kick people who modified the client to cheat was violating their freedom.
>Perhaps you want to run your own server, with different moderation policies.
Nothing would stop you from running your own server like that.
