    They could probably do that in windows by adding some service that checks if the mouse is valid… Since on windows it’s using Logitech drivers.

    On Linux it’s open source so no way they can do anything.

      Nah, you just have the mouse do a cryptographic handshake with the driver software and tie it to a server-side validation check, and thus if there’s no handshake and validation, there’s no working mouse.

      Easy!
