    Could anyone explain what a “hypervisor crack” is in this context? I’m very familiar with hypervisors but less so in relation to gaming.

    Is this just using a hypervisor to virtualise system services the DRM uses to assure it it’s not being monitored or interfered with at the OS/kernel level? Do you have to intercept networking as well?

      Essentially yes, uncertain about the networking.
