There is a huge difference between an anti-cheat program skimming through local files on your computer with permission to copy, edit, and upload, than doing what a proper anti-cheat does which is check to see if there is unauthorized code hooking into your game (simplified). We don't fully know what the ESEA drivers have installed on our computers. All computers running the ESEA driver could be on a botnet for all we know.
Regardless, when you install Steam you have acknowledged that Steam needs to install files on your computer because...well thats what a content distributor does. However, when ESEA secretly reserves the right to edit local files on your computer without clearly informing the user (through means other than the EULA), then that is very poor business practice to say the very least.
Finally, I don't know who wrote your code but that looks nothing like a anti-cheat program. Is that real or did you write that?
(And this doesn't even begin to address the fact that ESEA's admins knowingly mined bitcoins on their customer's computers)
