I have a question about xigncode3 anticheat
Hello, I would like to ask about an anticheat called xigncode3. One side tells that it is a rootkit and something worse that basically scans your system in 48 hours and sends it somewhere to a server. Another side that it is like a regular anticheat in the form of (vanguard, battleye, easyanticheat). Is there anyone who somehow understands this better? Is it safe to use? I don't know much about it myself so I would appreciate some answers. Thank you

On one hand, it's Chinese & China hates privacy. On the other hand, I can find only one source talking about that & that's both ancient & unavailable.

What's your sources? Let's read them both together for credibility!

I mostly searched on reddit for the name (xigncode3) and anything related to anticheat. All 3 years old and no one could tell if it was really that dangerous or not. I'm not someone who knows about it, that's why I'm asking someone who understands it more

If nobody can tell you what the actual threat is, it's a hoax.

Kinda reminds me on when Denuvo was said to shred SSDs. Everybody was talking about it, no real (as in "having actually checked that thoroughly & noted the results") sources around.

Well, I also think that it works on rign0 cores and it simply scans everything in 48 hours and sends it somewhere to the Chine server.On the other hand, I think that almost every anticheat does this, like in pubg, valorant, etc. Many games used it and still use this anticheat, and even if it was really bad, it would start to be solved even more than in 2015 where the reddit site is full of it
