i really hope they will do something this time, it was bad before but the recent situation just made it a whole lot worse and it makes me uncomfortable.

i really hope they will do something this time, it was bad before but the recent situation just made it a whole lot worse and it makes me uncomfortable.

I actually thought this would be a wake up call and one of the few situations where SE would actually turn around and acknowledge the issue on their part, but clearly I was misguided in that optimism.

They won't ever lift a finger beyond making a statement which invokes a clause ToS that they are too afraid to actually follow through on, even in situations where it is absolutely justified to do so.

The even worse thing is that it will get worse, because all they have demonstrated in the 20 days since this became 'public knowledge', is that they are siding with inaction. Sure, they may request a takedown... Sure they may pursue the situation legally, but are they going to patch the system which made this possible (or revert it)? - Based on the response, I don't think they will. - After this settles, we'll just be waiting for the next invasive tool that someone creates.. Which if you ask my opinion, absolutely will be worse than this.

At this point my last sliver of hope is that they just aren't communicating until they come up with a solution, but across the 20 days, and not actually making a formal statement on the lodestone, it doesn't set a good tone for my hope.

"Internal account ID" being seen.

Please tell me that your actual account ID like the one you else to log into the game, mogstation, store, etc. Isn't being sent to clients .
Please tell me the ID they are referring to is their account ID that only means something to them, and that the people using this addon cant get your actual ID to try to login with.

Have there actually been any cases of the plugin being used to further stalk players on their alts? We all know that's what it's for and in theory it can be used to that end, but has it happened yet?

Hold up, let me just ask the entire playerbase real quick.

It has with me, a stalker I have been dealing with has been wandering around me as my alts they shouldn't know about
