How effective are VPNs at preventing this? I’ve heard it recommended the most as a counter measure.

It’s still relatively new so it’s gonna take time for it to reach mainstream meme status like Arch or Gentoo.

I mean proton is available in the AUR last I checked. Also, couldn’t you just use the “add non-steam game” option in steam? I’ve heard it does sometimes block pirated games, but it wouldn’t hurt to try

So true! Here, have some internet points and validation!

That truly sucks. Yeah, some professors can be like that. I had a math professor offer bonus points to the first 3 students completed the assignment, only for the majority to cheat and just look up the answer and turn that in. It became a contest of who could copy the fastest and one student even admitted to doing it, but she just didn’t care and gave points to the cheaters anyway.

The lack of Holy C in this meme makes me incredibly disappointed.
