A few people have asked me about security, and seeing as it's an important question, I'd like to address it in the thread.
- First of all, we'll be using SSL encryption - the same security authorization that gmail uses.
- We'll never sell your hands or anything sketchy like that. Hell, my location tells you exactly where I am everyday so if any bs like that were to go down, you can find me on the 2nd floor by the Microforms desk.
- Your hands are private and can only be seen by you. We will be instituting a sharing and posting feature which will allow you to show hands and sessions to your friends and post hands to the web. Since this could open the door to the type of sharing that could be constituted as cheating, we plan on working with the sites to make sure whatever we do falls within their terms of service.
- While it would be somewhat ironic, we would be willing to engage with pokertableratings.com to conduct a security test - similar to the ones they did with AP/UB and Cake.
If you have any questions about this please don't hesitate to post them in this thread or PM me directly.
Thanks,
Chaz
