Managers

gollark: I actually deal with this a decent bit for potatOS exploits.
gollark: You don't have to. Just look at the IO.
gollark: Not that I'm particularly *good* at reverse engineering, but I can write... the windows equivalent of LD_PRELOAD things eventually maybe.
gollark: If I was being evil, I could just... windows equivalent of strace... your program, see that it looks for hardware IDs or something, and spoof that, without ever seeing the code.
gollark: That is obfuscation, not protection.
