Nobody is forced with a gun to play a game with a toxic community either, does that mean it's not worth complaining about? Perhaps the article should mention the supposed tradeoffs required to police such a community. I say supposed because I've played far less toxic games than Vallorant and League that don't require such invasive software. Perhaps Riot should do some introspection and ask why the games they make foster such bad behavior instead of harming nontoxic players with their policing methods.
