trust is not binary. i trust my preinstalled system fonts more than i trust vanguard, as an example.

different goals, different people involved, different scope of access, different amount of review, different amount of use = different levels of trust

Absolutely, and we can discuss the amounts of this trust. Some people trust the anti-cheat devs. (I do too, on a PC that is used for almost nothing but gaming.)

okay, if you agree with that, i am confused about your initial comment comparing anti-cheat to a font.

it appears like you are saying "if you trust the font to be okay, you should trust anti-cheat". but we've just cleared up that they have wildly different levels of trust, due to their wildly different access, size, purpose, etc.

I mean - trust is subjective, right? Some people just don't care, some people are okay with the risk-reward tradeoff. I agree it's a bit absurd to compare vanguard to a font, but the parent comment was pretty unapologetic too.
