ROBLOX?
What information can we pull from a normal user on a roblox game? lets get into it
*This topic was researched a while ago so it may not be applicable but its nice to know Short post too!!!
General Location Finding
We can actually pull information on the device to find out where the user is generally By using the ‘GetCountryRegionForPlayerAsync’ it already gives us a general Country/Region in which the user is from To continue this triangulation of the user we can also use ‘PolyService:GetPolicyInfoForPlayerAsync()’ to be able to “returns policy information about a player which is based on geolocation, age group and platform” This can give us many things like if the player can interact with paid random item generators, if they can see social media links, if they can trade virtual items and if they are subject to chinese policies can give us even more hints where the user is from
The even crazy thing is that we are also able to use ‘DeviceGravityChanged’ which is able to detect if the force of gravity changes on the devices accelerometer, this can also be done to detect gravitational anomalies that allow us to trianglate a closer area to where they are depending on earthse gravity field anomalies depending on miligals (-50 to 50)
User Data
We are able to utilize roblox’s api to retreive account information, Metadata, Phone Information, Promotion Channel, StarCodeAffliate, Roblox badges and Email Information This is vital to find out more about the user To be able to have this work we must use the ‘HttpService’ to be intertwined with the roblox account api
Another small thing I want to mention is the ‘UserInputService’ that is able to give us information about the detection and capture of different types of input from the users device
