Patch 7.2's Account ID protection measures have already been circumvented

[GiR_Zippo]

The player ID was obfuscated in a very basic calculation that was of course cracked within a day.

What was to be expected, sadly.

Even then the obfuscation was static so if you were using the stalker plugin by yourself literally nothing had changed.

I read the posts from NotNite and could it be that the "stalker plugin" it self is now using the library NotNite retweeted?

In a competent game this information would only be handled by the server.

Means SE could easily set the visibility from a blacklisted player server side to 0 and suppress the chat messages.
Basically the same situation we have now (he can see you, you can't), just done server sided?

... If you use an alt to be left alone by a stalker, that stalker now knows that's your alt.

Basically an automated version, few ppl did back in the days by lodestone?
