That can be prevented by only posting if the IPs belong to data centers. No cheater with a brain runs a large farm from their residential IP address.
Whether someone uses the same email anywhere or not, whether their IP is real or not, it should NOT be published on a public forum.
Don't quote me out of context. I also said:

It's better to just share the info with other casinos' abuse teams instead of dumping it on a pastebin that almost nobody will read (let alone take action on).
Do you think any company is going to take a list of IPs from a public forum and place them in their blacklist? Nobody, because they have data security and authenticity policies that preclude using public data from pseudonymous places like a forum in the first place.
In other words, it's useless to post this stuff on a forum.
For the record I do feel that TheQuin's red on savetheforum and suchmoon's red on TheQuin should be neutrals. The chance of somebody having a fingerprint the same as a bunch of Chrome scripts is near zero (these aren't browser fingerprints we're talking about: these presumably also take registration date and IP addresses into account as well).
How about the lawyers and TOS bit? That's gotta be one of the most absurd pseudo-legal threats we've seen here, and that's considering all the shitty casinos with their KYC nonsense etc. I have a feeling it might be against the law in some countries too.
I agree with you that posting IP and email doxes in public is a stupid idea, hence why I said it's better to share this stuff (well, sell actually, as these are businesses), with other competing casinos since chances are if a multiaccounter is abusing faucets with bots chances are they're doing the same for others also.
And then on their own side just close the offending accounts, which they seem to already do. People who come here to appeal just PM them the evidence instead of making a public post about it. If they continue to whine about it just block their messages.
Freebitcoin's obviously the biggest target of these abusers (just look at their name) so naturally they most likely have the biggest database of bot email and IP info. And then they actually make [back potentially lost] money from selling this, other casinos can weed out their abusers all while preserving the privacy of abusers.
This is my only account
Bullshit.
I made a new account to at least safeguard main account.
LOL! 😂
busted.2nd half is your approach towards the privacy of users, which he is still concerned about.
I am just stating my own understanding though.

If it is that I really don't see how publishing what is effectively a list of fake IDs used for fraudulent purposes poses any threat to anyone's privacy.
The problem is they're just going to stop leasing the AWS IPs and then you have a list of IPs that point to nowhere or worse, someone's private proxy (you need to hold a certain balance to be allowed to play from one anyway though).
I don't see why you don't simply block fake email addresses from registering though, wouldn't that solve 90% of the problems with fake accounts since they then need a bunch of phone numbers to make equivalent Gmail or Yahoo addresses?
