There are many precedents for that.

The regulation is not difficult to comply with. You just say you are processing this information, it will not be retained, and it is used for anti-cheat purposes. Simples. But the consent is required.

e.g. GDPR applies when a "controller" or "processor" determines purposes and means of personal data processing. if your software only processes information locally and you never receive, transmit or store it, you are not a controller or processor so there are no GDPR obligations

Ok, and what about the 10 other acts I listed? Or are we going to hyper-focus in on GDPR?

granted you could still define the processor as the software itself

Facts are these are standard regulations. If companies didn't have to obtain consent, you would not have these boring privacy policies on every game ever.

it was an example?
ePrivacy Directive focusses on interception, cookies and communications data. data does not leave the device - not in scope.
CCPA/CPRA defines collecting personal information as when a business obtains, receives or accesses it. if you never access or receive it and it never leaves the users device, then by law you're not collecting data - so not in scope either.
similar counts for the other things u named

there are exceptions if you e.g. distribute your software through an app store or other platforms which often require to add some kind of privacy policy even though u wouldnt need it legally

GDPR is the main 1 that im aware of has had edge cases that can be interpreted as the software itself actions, even without transmission - but there has never been any case directly accusing/questioning it to set the precedent of it being 1 way or the other, as there isn't a real benefit to the parent corp of it
