I'm not well versed in how Denuvo works, only in how it tanks performance. Does anyone know if there is anything stopping Denuvo from checking purchase validity the first time, and on subsequent game launches it can access a secure folder with a file like an internet cookie saying "yeah, this game was bought legit at one point, let it run" and then not run alongside the game?

Well such a cookie could probably be copied by pirates as well

Is this a real gaming news website? Seems sketch af. There was another article posted from here yesterday that also looked questionable.
