DRM should be illegal. If we have devices that can copy information instantly, it’s not our fault that it’s incompatible with capitalism - seems like capitalism is incompatible with nature. Find a new business model.
To repeat myself . . . Anti piracy is pointless for single player games. Without the need for anything online game cracks don’t have to work hard to bypass such copy protection. Also it is anti social, often requiring to be online just to play a purely offline game.
Putting anti cheats in single player games should be illegal.
But Denuvo is DRM software to prevent privacy, is not an anti-cheat :?

They did, running everything on their machines and charging us monthly to use it.
still sounds like capitalism to me
The new business model is cloud subscription gaming. You sure you want to argue for that?
They have more than one product. They provide anti-cheat as well as anti-tamper
It may have other nefarious uses but it is primarily anti-cheat software.
… No, Denuvo is “anti-tamper” software, meaning DRM primarily with anti-cheat as a bonus.
According to their own site it is both apparently. Either way it is used for both purposes, and for single player that makes no sense.
But one of the 2 uses does make sense for single player games.
Really? It constrains or prevents modding, which is a core part of PC gaming.
Copy protection for single player games is essentially pointless. Even GTA V let’s you do what you want in single player mode because it is offline.
The only reason they might want anti tamper is to support in game purchases, which is equally senseless for single player games.
It’s an antipiracy measure, not anti modding. Have you never heard of denuvo before?

Do you WANT this stuff?
It also prevents modding/chesting in singleplayer games with microtransactions
