Comment on Restricted data once again leaked on War Thunder forums

Giving a temporary ban reserves plausible deniability while keeping the honeypot open.

Yeah… that is xenophobic nonsense.
You don’t need a major successful live service game to build a honeypot for military secrets. I remember back in the day the arma fansites and the like would be CONSTANTLY filled with “is it real? if so… somebody getting black van’d” style posts. Same with flight sims. Anywhere you have even pseudo-realistic military hardware/tactics you will have people who insist on stuffing files in their pants and scanning them to prove why the thing they work on is better.
It is always hilarious that warthunder can’t go a month without classified information. But that more just speaks to how insanely popular that game is.
