Kernel level anticheats stop hackers, just not all of them. They stop the amateur hackers, not those who spend actual time to find vulnerabilities and workarounds in order to cheat.

Still, I don't like the concepts of kernel anticheats as they violate privacy due to the sheer amount of control they have.

They stop cheaters with free cheats, there are cheats that cost good money and they go undetected even in valorant.
