1 · Competitive and Client Testing (Julia) — Key Findings
Wind Creek Casino Online PA (Radar) — full integration validation
Results delivered June 19. Full testing across iOS, Android, and browser.
- ✗ Wind Creek Casino Online PA (Radar) — iOS RDP, DroidVNC + Tailscale, Android VPN undetected
Non-compliant: iOS FaceTime & iPhone Mirroring (TN operator controls in-state iPhone after local login); Android DroidVNC + Tailscale; Android Turbo VPN (iOS VPN detected at login + mid-session). Compliant: TeamViewer / AnyDesk / HopToDesk, Android FLA, ~90 m cross-border buffer, rooted Android mock location caught (root itself undetected). UX issues: Galaxy S16 deposit loop, ID verification screen-recording bypass, no autofill, limited deposit methods.
🎫 CIV-91
Bet365 MI + BetRivers MI (XPoint) — remote desktop detection improved
- ⚠️ bet365 MI + BetRivers MI (XPoint) — commercial RDP blocked pre-wager; RustDesk blocked at ~290 s interval
HopToDesk, AnyDesk, and TeamViewer detected and blocked before a bet — measurable improvement. RustDesk blocked at first interval check (~290 s / ~4.5 min); prior launch-order lag not reproduced. RustDesk only flagged while actively running, not when merely installed.
🎫 CIV-63
BetRivers PA (XPoint) — spoofing checks
- ✗ BetRivers PA (XPoint) — Tailscale macOS RDP unattended, Magisk mock-flag suppression, FaceTime handoff
Tailscale + Mac screen sharing: Mac1 (out of state) gets full control of Mac2 (in PA) via Finder — Mac2 user not required. Rooted Android: Magisk module suppresses mock-location flag before SDK reads it. FaceTime: local login + 2FA required, then full remote control. Retested on mobile network — same result.
🎫 CIV-88
Fanatics MI (OpenBet) — VMOS
- ✓ Fanatics MI (OpenBet) — VMOS blocked after login
Virtual Android environment blocked — generic error immediately after login, no wager path.
🎫 CIV-64
Casumo Casino QC/ON border (mkodo / GeoLocs) — full validation complete
- ✗ Casumo (mkodo / GeoLocs) — KYC bypass; games non-functional in QC
Tested from Quebec side of the border (Ontario licence suspended May 14). Fake Quebec address accepted with Ontario ID + Ontario billing — $10 deposit completed. Ontario in-province registration blocked; DevTools intermittent on Mac; Canadian iPhone shown maintenance page. Games failed to load across all platforms in QC.
🎫 CIV-55
2 · Competitive Research (Valeria) — Key Findings
- ⓘ Radar Web 5.0.0 / 5.1.0 — fraud detection moved to opt-in JS; emulators, screen sharing, IP check every 30 s
Fraud signals now in a separate easy-to-use JS module — clients can opt in/out. Adds emulator detection, screen sharing detection, and hardcoded IP check every 30 seconds.
3 · End-user Feedback (Valeria) — Key Findings
📊 Full dataset: Social Media Competitive Signals · Reddit + X/Twitter public posts.
- ⓘ BetRivers XPoint geo friction on Reddit; KYC + support overload spiking
No overall Reddit volume spike, but clear XPoint disapproval: PC geo failures, home WiFi blocked while cellular works (May 2026 posts). KYC (~every third r/betrivers post — days-long verification failures) and support overload (no email replies for days, multi-hour phone waits) spiking. Full BetRivers report in progress.
