Hacking A future SX OS update will have extra security to improve protection from bans

[RedHunter]

Lmao they blame it on layered while there have been countless people banned using sxos and that did NOT use layeredfs. Wonder how they explait that then ? What a bunch of assholes even now they still lie that their product isn't causing bans.

Tbh in that message they're saying not to play online with backups or you'll be banned. As they're saying it you can only update them.

I expect many great updates from Tx.

They're also blaming the bans only happen because of layeredfs wich is not true

If 100% of the bans aree LayeredFS and not TX, why do they need to do something about bans? Just saying. I can understand extra protection, just seems a bit weird to state that then say we're doing something about it....

 

[g00s3y]

LOL.

"it's not our illegal hardware/software which is causing the problems. It's people not using our illegal product correctly"

I don't think there is a way of protecting against a ban regardless of any updates TX does, you are better off just using a seperate Switch and profile for all of your legit gaming. eBay is having a 15% off sale as well so that's your best choice if you want to play online safe.

Gotta prevent telemetry with those Error Logs.

 

[lukhart]

Can't complain about more updates.
Hope it comes at the same pace of the others.

 

[Draxzelex]

So either several people lied or TX is lying...

Why does this look photoshopped?

It probably was, from a PrtScr.
It's Snipping Tool.

Looks like Gmail.

it's snipping tool from thunderbird. Man people are so paranoid nowadays.

Yeah...there's no way they can improve protection from bans. It's just impossible without the Switch constantly sending data to Nintendo

If this is true (TX attempting an anti-ban system) then that'll probably be what they attack (Nintendo's constant "Phone home" stuff).

Attack the source, and anything after it 'disappears' (i.e modding reports) but only if done correctly as there's plenty of examples of modders attempting things like this and it backfiring (PoGo++ comes to mind where it banned users for 2 months because the 'dev' attempted to defuse the anti-cheat Niantic implemented).

Yea, didn't really mind myself. I just noticed the border on the left. Made me think of gmail.

I'm still on 4.1 and the main issue for me is not being able to udate games.

I was on 2.3 and still updated to comfortably use SX OS. From what I remember there won't be a softmod for 4.1 anyway (only lower gets one) so you might as well update either directly or through the "no fuse burned" guide and enjoy backups properly.

Didn't a lot of people get banned purely for using SX OS offline ?

No mr new account that was created 5 mins ago, most bans come from the use of layeredfs and its errors, atm only like 4 users have been banned of using SX OS but they still used other homebrew, even now we dont know what triggers the bans to 100%

 

[Nincompoopdo]

SX OS is like Sky3DS, it's relatively safe if you don't play the games online. People will continue to use LayeredFS because of eShop games, TX needs to add eShop support if they want to eliminate LayeredFS.

Trust me, LayeredFS can eliminate itself without external help. What with the ban risk, complicated setup, and variable guarantee on games working, people will do anything to play their backups for free.

In 100 of the case. I guess he meant in 100 cases instead of in 100% of the cases, since there were people saying they were banned without layeredfs. Just using homebrew or just sx os.

Yes, but going online in SX OS and playing games online leads to a ban they said. With layered. Even if you go into OFW you can be banned ( playing legitly ). If people actually read the email it states what causes what.

Going to online with pirated games on any CFW = Ban. Installing SX OS CFW staying offline and then Botting into OFW to play legit games online is safe . Using layered CFW is not safe, even if you boot into OFW and play legit games.
