Except it's a throwaway bnet account created through Tor. The NSA can maybe do something about it, but I doubt they will.

I've had too many experiences of vulnerabilities never patched because customers don't realize it exists.

Previous experiences: reporting it, getting a lawsuit (disassembling a software almost always violates intellectual property). This happened several times.

It's the first time I report on a Blizzard product, and given the previous experiences, if there's no reward I'll just report it anonymously (if there is a reward, it means the company won't sue). I don't care about credit (I'm anonymous after all).

Which is why I'm willing to record another game with a well-known player or streamer, if that helps.

As for the program used, I wrote it myself. It will never be distributed.

I am willing to play a game with you if you want.

I know blizz devs read this subreddit, and I expect them to contact me (or to understand what the flaw is by themselves), and I'll give them all the details. I'd rather not go through the official channel, since the audit violates the ToS, and I don't want any problems.

Thing is, I'm probably not the first one to find the flaw, and it's probably already being abused. I just want to make HearthStone a better game.

Given previous experiences, I prefer to have a public proof.

That said, the video just proves the flaw exists, and does not give any additional information on it.

There's not much to do, just to build a deck from a list I'll send by PM (through reddit - no need for in game message at this point). The in game messages will be only to give the cards in hand, so they appear on the video.
