      No…they’re much dirtier than that, apparently, although it’s difficult to know for sure. There are many results in Google if you look for methods, and sometimes people in the biz chime in with some good answers, but it’s still mostly speculation.

        I used the same email haha
        I wasn’t trying to hide or break rules, I was just changing my name because the old one was cringey 😅

        I’m sure they do have loads of ways to detect alts though, it’s a pretty interesting field security wise.
