Kakao Discovers List of Compromised Accounts, Locks Them
If your Black Desert account has been locked, there is good reason. Kakao this week reported that they discovered a list of compromised account information and have taken steps to lock the accounts to prevent any further damage. The leak, according to Kakao, was not associated with any of Kakao services and may not include all accounts affected by breach of a third party service.
Those with locked accounts are encouraged to contact Kakao customer support with the following details.
- You must contact us from the new email address you created.
- State the email address your account is currently associated with.
- A photo of your photo ID card, taken in front of today’s physical newspaper clearly showing the date, or over your screen showing your open ticket needs to be added as an attachment to the ticket. Please understand we will have to delete the tickets with the incorrectly added pictures, which may slow down the process for you.
- Please obscure the identity number and pass photo before you send or scan us a copy of your ID.

[Not Massive] Osu! Admits Past Use of Intrusive Anti-Cheat
When does anti-cheat go too far?
A recent source code leak for the rhythm game Osu! has unveiled some rather damning evidence on how the program used to monitor for cheating. According to details revealed in the leak, and shown in the photo above, administrators are able to snapshot a user suspected of running cheat programs. The snapshot, as you can see above, contains not just the game but a shot of the user’s entire desktop.
Osu! developer (Reddit username Pepppppy) confirmed that while the code is outdated and as such the program is no longer present, that intrusive anti-cheat tools were at one point in use.
it has already been removed since the last time this discussion came up, actually. the code that was leaked is verydated (pulled from the master branch, which is not our active development branch). things are in a very different state currently, and we haven’t relied on any intrusive anti-cheat for a while now.
