Discord also checks your IP when you create an account and if they detect you are using a VPN at the moment of the creation of the account, they might ask for additional verification steps (it happened to me before). IP Ban is the most reliable way of banning someone, for a service like Discord. And you cannot get that from a browser anyway. Even a UUID (Universally unique identifier) is not unique. He has his HWID but when he banned him, other people with the same components on their pcs got banned too.

Hardware fingerprint changer software#
A friend of mine who made a software decided to ban someone from using it. For HWID, there might be some unwanted bans because there is no real way to get a unique HWID. Windows has a setting for that, called "Random hardware addresses".

Even for those who use the desktop app, if Discord used something like the Mac Address, it would be really easy to bypass. This means that people using the browser version of Discord like me will be immune from that kind of stuff. Both of them are dumb because you cannot get both of them in a browser, from what i know. The first would be MAC Address which is very different from what people imagine, that can easily be spoofed because you can change it and the second is HWID (hardware id) which is harder to spoof but still possible with some types of VMs. Tbh, i don't think it would be smart to ban people with hardware id.įirst, when you talk about hardware ban, there is 2 things. For communications within a network segment, it is used as a network address for most IEEE 802 network technologies, including Ethernet, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth.Īddicionally, using WebRTC, it is possible to obtain the local IP, but not the MAC address.

Using a virtual machine (Virtualbox, VMWare, QEMU), you can change the MAC address in no time.īesides, MAC addresses only matter for the router/switch to know where to send your packets.Ī media access control address ( MAC address) of a device is a unique identifier assigned to a network interface controller (NIC). MAC addresses can be easily spoofed with easily accessible tools on Windows. Not to mention the privacy concerns that this would show. However, the core still maintains: you can't get an hardware ID from a web page (Discord desktop and in the browser work almost the same way), and if you could it would be easily spoofed the same way. This comment was on a suggestion regarding adding MAC address ban (NOT THE SAME AS HARDWARE ID BAN) and talks about that.
