Microsoft Anti-Debug Patent

Microsoft has patented their anti-debug protection used on their games and probably other software. The methods described in the patent are brief and not in much detail, however enough information is said to get a general idea of where to start attacking. To view the patent in PDF with images, you need an account at this website. The images were brief and unimportant - more of a visual representation of what was written. The text is what is meaty.

This new information will make it easier to create game apps, right? That could have good and bad implications.
