    Still not safe to play public?

    I heard that if you played a public game in D3 you could be hacked by some public game hack. Has it changed is it possible now to play public in D3 without getting hacked?

    Not sure I ever saw any official confirmation of that so-called exploit/hack.
    Pretty sure it was simply malicious fearmongering, but due to being a rather non-social player I have yet to open any game up to the public.
    I am sure someone else can shed some light on that.

    Nope, never happened and the "hack" never existed.

    One of the early rumors that was spread around, basically by people refusing to hold themselves accountable for shoddy security is what this boils down to.

    It was always safe to play in public games. Those "hacked through public games" posts were lies. Also, no-one got hacked when they had an authenticator attached to the account. Those that said they got hacked with an authenticator attached were those that added and authenticator after they got hacked and got called out by the blue posters.

    There has never been any public game hack. It's simply been rumors and false claims.
    What the heck? My browser’s telling me “smidge” ain’t a word. OH YEAH!?!? *Adds to personal library* TAKE THAT!

    That hack never existed, it's not true, no evidence, it's safe, not going to keep this going.
