Sounds pretty click-baity but if a company put the name of my software on an opaque list that ships with the OS that makes my software behave differently than I expect it to and didn't even TELL ME about it I'd be way WAY more pissed than this guy is.

Drivers do this to every single videogame. And it is good, otherwise those game would not run in every consumer 3d card.

I'm sure the driver devs have at least some interaction with the game devs when they do this.
