You have to region lock Brazil, China, Southeast Asia in general, and Russia at a bare minimum if you want to have even a tiny chance of not having your game ruined by hacks and cheats.
“Fair play” is not a universal principle. It is mostly isolated to a handful of white peoples and cultures plus maybe Japan? The majority of people on earth do not understand or observe fair play.
Personally I advocate for region locking. The Chinese are a plague on the internet and should be forced to deal with each other.

The Chinese straight up tell their children, "If you're not cheating, you're not trying."
There's something to be said for the "there is only winning" philosophy of life.
