At this point a shutdown might be for the best – keep them from changing a bunch of stuff in parts of the government where we aren’t looking at.
That’s one of the things that really has me nervous – we’re seeing so much crap that they are doing publicly that I am really concerned about the stuff we aren’t seeing.
This is definitely something that has been coming for some time. Yes, I am a little surprised it has taken this long for a major channel know for hardware reviews for gamers to take this step… I would have thought that the popularity of the Steam Deck, and all of the handhelds that are now running Linux would have been a motivator.

And I agree, Bazzite is probably one of the best choices that they could make. The immutability of the system will allow them to have consistent images that won’t change on them randomly. That is a definite requirement when dealing with this type of benchmarking.
I’m just really glad that I don’t play any games from EA…
