It’ll be the Riot Games Vanguard anti-cheat. It’s very invasive.

Riot Games client data? Aka anticheat root kit? Did your old laptop have a riot game on it?

Yep, it did. But I had uninstalled everything months prior to the Arch Linux install.

I thought they're mildly famous for not uninstalling cleanly /leaving stuff behind, but don't remember exact details.
