Yeah I agree they're both terrible in their own regards, but cheating has become such a profitable industry that I don't see anything short of government regulations or extremely aggressive anti-cheat solving it. And also, if a group of hackers managed to compromise an anti-cheat, I'm sure there would be terrible consequences for them. They'd paint a target on their backs and companies affected would go to the ends of the earth to make sure they got prosecuted. I think that's the reason they haven't tried yet, and just try to bypass it with quiet, advanced stuff that has no media attention. The worst thing a hacker can do is attract attention to themselves.
