So I’m talking about playing previously Windows-only games on Linux, e.g. via proton.

I don’t know about the libraries etc that are used - is it possible for Microsoft to use some legal voodoo, for example, to suddenly end it all, and make the use of their libraries illegal (if they belong to Microsoft in the first place)?

Or could there be other ways of interference?

    I really doubt they could pull that off, even with the US court system, but even if they did, the backlash would be fucking spectacular and would probably ultimately result in speeding up the trend of Linux friendly gaming.
