User mcgree using ip tracker in signature
Since admins on these forums don't respond to messages:
User mcgree is using an invisible image in his signature:
Since the corresponding site just throws a 403, it's probably to collect your IP addresses.
Oh, and some advice to @mcgree:
It's easier to not get caught if you use a valid certificate for your domain.

I use sextuple NAT. Im good to roll
Instaban!
No fucking idea how those v4 and v6 were supposed to work if you point them to Cloudflare DNS... but fucking permaban please
Hey that's me
hey i've seen you around before
Remote images should be banned in signatures to avoid such activity. And degenerates who use such methods should be banned without question. I feel violated.
Cloudflare can still show user IP via api
Evacuate the forum
Engage all defenses
And get this man a ban.
Where I come from is a proud place. You have unlawfully used the inspect data resource, and have compromised billions. The FBI office of Kolkata begs you to bring yourself in, pronto
When the last time someone achieved sextuple ?
Right now, doi! 🤪
It has been blocked, but I assume this guy added it before we blocked so it wasn't caught

i have cgnat so yeah
was he or would he be able to match those harvested IP to usernames?
Not easy but possible (I wouldnt tell how though)
@mcgree puts my name in his signature and brings shame to Team push-ups.
The correct way to do this is to use a server side image proxy rather than allowing image embeds directly.
No, just no.
What the sunny has to say is the way to go
Yes, this can be done, by matching links with replies, then comparing results of multiple threads. One just needs to solve any issue at concept level, then implement it technically.
Fortunately, most abusers and hackers don't have patience or deep focus thinking, therefore most hackers use tools already created to get things done fast. The world in general is good, and people in general are nice in their hearts, so they can't stay focused on evil projects for too long, otherwise their mind cracks (hackers included).
It's interesting that he's doing v4v6, v4 and v6 as separate images. Just going from the names, maybe to be charitable he's doing an experiment one which people have both IPv4 and IPv6 configured to see which gets used in practice. Or maybe he has a sinister reason to correlate the two.
I guess whatever, he's a very naughty boy.
Lets flog them!
First we must all learn to think for ourselves!
I got BilohBucks, that can wait til later
This happens in every forum
Each day it just keeps on getting better
This isn't the first time this has happened anyway. Wasn't there a guy who did cookie stuffing to get easy affiliate money and he's still around here?
I think this is untrue. You hear all the time of burned-out programmers, accountants, office clerks. Ever heard of burned-out drug dealer or mafia gangster? Doing evil stuff keeps your adrenaline level high and you never wanna stop.
