How do you even begin to make an anticheat for Linux? It just takes one person to make an Ubuntu (or any other popular distro) distro that gives fake answers to whatever API an anticheat program may use. You just download that distro and use cheats. It would be indistinguishable from the upstream distro.

Probably start with a kernel module. Gonna see games requiring dkms soon.
