Meanwhile. Famous people are being banned from multiplayer for "hate speech" due to an "exploit." This includes both these people's private and public servers. Imagine being banned from visiting your own website. The modern version of the game is a disgrace to what once existed.

They really ought to fix that exploit, at the very least disable the functionality for the time being until they find a fix.

  The solution is to play only on private java servers that have modded out the censorship functionality. Of course most of those are closed or semi closed so useless for commercial purposes...

    Mojang won't authenticate your account to the server. They can't remove the censorship without turning into a server that allows prirated accounts to connect.

      Last time I played I'm pretty sure they had a plugin that disabled sending chats to Mojang but left all other checks intact. It just broke the griefing-by-reporting functionality. Of course that won't save you if you go to servers that don't have reporting disabled so careful where you play.

        That is irrelevant. It doesn't require chat messages to be banned for hate speech.

      https://modrinth.com/mod/no-chat-reports https://modrinth.com/mod/no-chat-reports Basically with each chat message there's a cryptographic payload proving that you are the sender, so reports can't be fabricated. If you remove it on the server before sending it to other players (or remove it on your client before sending it to the server) you can't report the messages. Also look into this and this for exploits: https://github.com/nodusclient/gaslight https://github.com/nodusclient/gaslight https://github.com/nodusclient/guardian https://github.com/nodusclient/guardian

        That is irrelevant. It doesn't require chat messages to be banned for hate speech. Someone found the right way to phrase a report or are just relying on support to mess up on one of the many reports being sent to get them banned. It's not like the player being banned was on the same server as the people reporting them.

        Well, then it's time to download a crack.

        Do you have a source ? I didn't find any info about this exploit, and I thought it was related to chat reporting (being hate "speech" after all)

        Possibly they have Copilot handling bans, then all bets are off.

    The solution is to ban so many accounts, including high-profile accounts, they can't ignore the fact they fucked up.
