Bug ID: 54986
           Summary: Apps blocking Wine via telemetry and calls
           Product: Wine
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: x86-64
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2

Roblox and many other apps have ways of blocking Wine. A simple fix is to
disguise the calls and telemetry. One can see how it is done here:

If we can rename the calls and telemetry to the ways Windows sends them, wide
ranges of apps that block Wine including Roblox would now have no way to. This
would really help the Linux Gaming community.
