    If you wanted to test it, you could try sandboxing it to run as an unprivileged user with access to nothing else on the operating system. They claim it will run without needing sudo or root.

    I’m not gonna test it though. I’m not willing to use a distro that doesn’t let me compile and install my own kernel modules.

    [edit] I read a bit more, looks like they are allowing unprivileged code into the kernel. That’s apparently what eBPF does.

    Stay far away from this project.
