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

Blocklist didn't need increasing to 1000. Only people who need that many blocks are people miss using it to block every player who fails to reach progpoint second pull, or are going out of their deviant way to attract the attention of deviants. Please don't waste resources on that SQX. It's an unnecessary 'change' that solves a totally different non- problem.
A problem that somewhere there is already an add-on for I'm sure. Don't choose helping the progliar-paranoics to be the issue you actually decide to fix in the vanilla game rather than leaving to the add-on the community.
Come on add-on community. Isn't it time you created an add-on that:
-checked all the PF results
-interogated who is in the PF the moment
-looked then up and flagged an alert for any on your blocklist (account wise)
-also checked with a crowd maintained public shamelist
-used ai to interpret the PF description and do any auto check against fflog progress analyser

Let's go full psycho-toxic!
PROG! PROG! PROG! PROG!
IT'S ALL ABOUT THE OPTIMAL PROG!

Also, this privacy issue still hasn't been fixed.
I'm not even going to bother asking about X-DC PF.

Enough people have forgotten about it or believe that their "fix" actually accomplished anything that it's no longer a fire they need to put out, so it'll go unmentioned.

the persecution complex of bad players in PF feeling bullied for being kicked and blocked for underperforming sure is staggering

That last time I heard anything about this is some reddit talking about how the owner that that tool have already received a "cease and desist" officially. How true that was, I dunno.

The fact however remains that the security flaw seems to be unchanging. It's only a matter of time before another one took their place (or already is, we're just unaware).

As long as they don't make a true fix that stop sending account number identifier through the client, there will only be PS 2.0, 3.0 etc popping out very soon. Just because you stop the 1st one it doesn't mean you get to be invulnerable. People who have more than a braincell wouldn't go happy all jolly
