Yes, some Addon will broadcast whisper to your friend and Guild mate (Take Guild position for instance)

I’ll have a look on the link sometime. (Can’t promise that yet)

I understand the tracking part but I don’t get the ‘silent whisper’ part… silent whisper happens if I have em on my friends list?

The screenshot is by Gnomeaggedon. (Credits goes to him)

But yes, I am surprised I had been tracked by them.
I found some competitor I never aware of before.

And about the finger print thing…
it seems the byte send is related to how long you log in….
we can spot what ui a guy is using, but well, chance of using the same ui is not that small right?

Oh wow. I didn’t think much about this before now. Some addons will share data with your friends. I bet that is what is happening here. They added you as a friend to track you, but the mods they have installed is giving them away.

Oh god, I don’t think I want to know how many people are tracking me. It will make me want to mess with them.

I wonder if you can fingerprint people that are tracking you. Like in the screen shot you posted. I see the same 3 mods in the same order twice with the same amount of data send. I would guess that those are the alts of the same person if they are from different people.
