Default casinos have our identity

this might sound stupid but what if casino spend some money hire pro hacker to come to blackjack forums like this one and some others to get cardcounters info and give it back to casino, next thing u know we are not welcome in los vagas casino or any other places. im pretty sure that people in this forum used their email address to register at this forum and its the same as the one they been using for something eals and most of us connect to the internet with their real ip address. is it possible or maybe im just stupid.

You're definitely not stupid straight_arrow as your fears are not without fear.
But Ken is a site-owner of renowned integrity, who is flanked by very high-calibre deputies; the likes of Sonny, ICnT (and various other behind-the-scenes forces.) So you have very little to be concerned about, next time you venture to Los Vagas. So you can relax mate.

It could happen.. but you make too many assumptions.

Rule 1. Paranoid people never use their primary email to register for anything.
Rule 2. Paranoid people use email addresses or I.P.s that aren't trackable to the individual.
Rule 3. Paranoid people don't give casinos trackable email addresses.
Rule 4. Casinos don't know who Paranoid people are.
Rule 5. There is Profit in Confusion.

I have many e-mail addresses that I use for different purposes. There is one that AP's know me by, and there is another I give to casinos to get my e-mail offers. There is one I use for legitimate business (banking etc.) and another I use when ordering some crap online where I can be sure I'll get spam from it. There's one I use strictly for Ebay, and another I use for miscellaneous non-advantage gaming.

The password for each account is "polytetrafluoroethylenes" but using different combinations of upper and lower-case letters for each account. Thus there are 16,777,216 possible variants.

Are you sure you spelled it correctly?

Yes. It's my password, and I can spell it any way I want!

Here's a neat security trick for passwords- use a recognizable word as part of it, but slightly misspelled. A person looking over your shoulder will perceive it as the word properly spelled and he'll probably never get in.

Cute. Ironic too.

For those among us without benefit of a scientific background
polytetrafluoroethylenes can best be conceived of as Teflon™

A remarkably simple formula, that, by itself, can serve as a nice short password: (C2F4)n's

C2F4 has nowhere near enough variants now, does it...

If you put a whole chain of them together, it might.

I suppose the ultimate password would to get your genome sequenced, and use that as a password. Every two base pairs could be expressed as one ASCII value. And if you ever lost your password, you could send in a DNA sample to get it reset.
