What do these people think they gain?

Whats the point?

Do they really just want to ruin stuff for everyone?

It's to the point now where they are using DMA (direct memory access) cards to read memory directly from the PCI bus and bypass even the most invasive anticheats. Valorant has a ton of DMA cheaters.

Ok that's impressive! I had no idea.

That seems like a lot of time and effort ... what is actually being gained by this?

For the cheaters? A feeling of superiority. For the people that make those cheats? Money from those losers, apparently enough to be worth the trouble sadly.
