I know this is being played out like Ubisoft is getting unfair treatment here, but I'm going to be very unsurprised when the underlying cause is some bullshit DRM or kernel level bullshit that should never have been bundled with something as frivolous as a videogame

Definitely wouldn't be surprised - MS have been making noises about reducing the level of access non-core Windows services get after the cloudstrike fiasco, and given MS's patch stability lately, I would also not be surprised if something leaked out early.
