    Why is not in the dev tracker anymore?

    Not sure why it wasn't appearing on the dev tracker. It is back up there now.

    For some additional context, as @Dolgubon had already mentioned, the offending addon was available only on console. On PC, it was always possible for anyone to open up an addon and look at its code, which was a very strong safeguard and deterrent against this sort of thing and is, I believe, a major reason why there's been no history of such things happening on the PC side.

    Not nearly as bad, but a couple years ago LibCustomTitles was widespread "bloatware" in PC addons. For those who (usually unknowingly) had the lib installed, "distinguished members of the community" (as determined by the lib author) had a unique custom title.
