I downloaded the HATs pack for my brand new modded OLED. Everything seems to be working as normal but I am scared to connect Emummc to my network in case the nintendo IPS aren't blocked. My understanding is that exosphere is included but I wanted to make absolutely sure before connecting to wifi. I am using the latest version of HATs found on GitHub. My serial number is blanked out in emunand if that helps.

I have blanked out serial number but 90DNS said the servers were unblocked when I tested them instead of blocked. Does that mean I am instabanned? I used the HAT pack and I thought atmosphere had exosphere on by default.
No, it just mean you can't access eshop, online service it is blanked out like XAW0000000000000
Nintendo servers were not blocked by HATs. On my unpatched switch atmosphere automatically blocks nintendo servers. That means I connected to nintendo servers with emummc. How screwed am I?
You have to look at the exosphere config, blank_prodinfo_emummc=1 mean it is blanked out.
[exosphere]
debugmode=1
debugmode_user=0
disable_user_exception_handlers=0
enable_user_pmu_access=0
blank_prodinfo_sysmmc=1
blank_prodinfo_emummc=1
allow_writing_to_cal_sysmmc=0
log_port=0
log_baud_rate=115200
log_inverted=0
I know prod info is blanked out......
What I am saying is that when I ran 90DNS tester, none of the nintendo IPs showed as blocked. That means when I pinged them, I was able to get a response.
Does this mean I am going to get banned?
You probably didn't set the dns servers for 90dns. Since your serial number are blanked you can treat it like you are banned even though you are not as you can't access online service.
ping isn't the same as blocking your Switch from getting identified. There is no data to get identified at all even.

What identifies your switch as an unit, is it serial... If there's no serial to identify it (incognito mode) they can't ban your Switch at all. It's like hunt someone who you don't know anything about, not even the name.
You're overthinking. Nintendo uses the prodinfo identifier to ban consoles. Yours is blank. When and if your Switch talks to Nintendo it will send an invalid identifier. Obviously none of Nintendo's online services will accept this identifier and will result in "banned" type messages. Your real identifier SHOULD still work from OWF. There is a low chance that Nintendo can get the identifier from another method but I don't believe anyone has a concrete answer on that. This is where the suggestion to both block the Nintendo servers and blank the prodinfo comes from. Finally, I don't believe you even need to use 90dns. Take advantage of the DNS blocking within AMS. Then you don't even need to set DNS servers.

It doesn't matter, as long as your serial number shows as blanked, you can't get banned even by connecting to Nintendo servers (servers will just refuse the connection)
I just set up MITM. How did free shops block consoles permanently if prod info blocks all your info? If tinfoil shops can do it, I am sure nintendo can block them as well right?
Tinfoil shops can identify individual nintendo switches and link them to a discord account permanently. In fact some people that bought used switches were unable to use shops because they were already linked to a discord account. That means that the owners of the tinfoil shops are able to identify your console somehow. Couldn't nintendo also use the same method to identify your switch?
Sure, if they required you to login with an account. Also Atmosphere blocks a lot of telemetry data that Nintendo use.
But that has nothing to do with how a tinfoil shop authenticate you, you can gain access to a shop even though you blank out your prodinfo.

You control a kitten. You fall out the window and have to make your way back home. Solve some light puzzles, do cat things like knock stuff over and steal things, trip people up when theyre walking, pounce on birds, complete goals/tasks etc. in the process of getting back to your home.+1

@SylverReZ It's short but adorable imo. Im a HUGE cat lover.Can be completed in a couple of hours if just going for the main goals. But can be stretched out a good deal by exploring and doing everything there is to do and see.+2

So a man goes to the doctor because his boner wont go down. As he is laying in the hospital bed, with his thing propped up in the air, a fly is flying around and landing on the tip and bothering him, so he calls in the nurse. The nurse comes in, swats at the fly but can't quite reach it, so she climbs his boner to get better aim. After a few tries of swatting and sliding back down, she says sorry I cant get it. He says keep going, a few more tries, and I can shoot the fly down.+2 -
