"Iesnare"@en . "The main purpose of the system is to block criminal activity where fraudsters use multiple stolen identities / credit cards to sign up for multiple accounts on the same gaming sites. Whilst this sounds like a good thing and any lawful user shouldn\u2019t have anything to worry about, what is worrying is the fact that your computer\u2019s identity is being monitored as you use it across many different gaming websites. So for example if you use the same machine to sign up to two or more different sites that use the iesnare system, each site will know that you\u2019ve recently signed up somewhere else and potentially earmark you as a criminal or abuser. Also, you don't get the option to opt in or out of this, the iesnare cookie is installed secretly without your knowledge or explicit permission (as opposed to the permission you give when you agree to the T&C of most gaming sites which probably includes a clause that allows them to use companies like Iovation to track users). See here for a whitepaper by Iovation on the ieSnare technology:"@en . .
