First, welcome back to LJ! It's definitely low volume these days (although today is definitely above average with posts from you, Bill, EVWhore, and Mark).
I was speaking with a client today (another high stakes player); he told me he's far more concerned with people attempting to put Trojans on his computer than actions like Mr. Hastings'. Still, to the general public (if this came out to the public) it bolsters claims from a certain Mr. Adelson regarding online gambling. That's not a good thing.
Yeah, I'm with your client. I don't know that someone playing under a different person's account is something that I was every really worried about, event though I know it happened a lot. I was more concerned about colluding boiler rooms. One year at BARGE, I was playing $1-2 NL with a group of guys who were in Vegas for a bachelor party. They were talking about how they used to all get on the same tables and collude like crazy. They sucked so I'm not sure how -EV it would be for the victims in that setup, but still a bigger concern.
