Comment on Ubisoft Accused of 'Secret Data Collection' in Single-Player Games
splendoruranium@infosec.pub 11 hours agoI run all my games in Linux and everything but Steam goes via Lutris which I configured to, by default, launch them inside a Firejail sandbox with no network access (plus a bunch of other security related limitations) something which I can override for specific games if needed.
That sounds like a neat setup! And no messing around with firewall rules either. I’ll have to look into it.

In Lutris there’s a “Command prefix” configuration option both per-game and in the global config with the dfeauot for all games which is where the firejail command line goes (basically sandbox with firejail you’re supposed to run “firejail firejail-options original-command original-options” and putting firejail and its options in “command prefix” does that).
Note that there are other sandboxing options that run in the same way as firejail but I found firejail to have more straightforward options.
Also note that this won’t sandboxes the actual setup of a game, only the running of the game.
