You really didn't think this whole Real ID issue was over, did you? Blizzard's decision late last week to pull back on plans to require the use of its Real ID system on the company's forums made its fans happy. But before that move was announced a number of Blizzard's fans protested the move to the ESRB in the hopes that the US game ratings organization could intervene.
Late on Monday the ESRB emailed those people back. The message itself, which repeated that Blizzard decided not to use Real ID as a forum requirement, isn't the main thing. Unfortunately whomever at the ESRB sent the email didn't use the BBC input as a result nearly 1,000 email addresses were shown to all the folks who got the reply back. We are sure that it was a simple mistake but it is very ironic concerning the topic of the email was online privacy.
