Can EAC still be bypassed on Linux for A16.4?

I've seen threads from well over a year ago about EAC easily being bypassed on A14/A15. Does this still hold true to A16.4? Also, would this apply to any Linux distro, or only specific ones? (I started dual-booting Ubuntu as my work environment)

I would also like to know. Did you try it yet?

Nope, I don't know what I can try. That's why I'm asking! : )
