VRChat Users that use the Spyware Gonso also known as "GonsoLiscenser"
-
@scenerae i would join but probably wouldnt be able to help. i do enjoy frankensteining shit. i do generally find individual assets to slap on but sometimes creators have unique shit they dont post anywhere but some model that honestly kinda sucks
-
@meowmei ;; im making a huge archive of avatars i find on here and vrmodels to frakenstein stuff
-
@scenerae niceee, if u ever need help with actual bashing together of stuff, i might be able to help. i like to think im okay at blender and unity
-
@meowmei ;; i was also working on a server for like.. making avatars to give back to the ripperstore if thats also your thing! id love your help though genuinely
-
@scenerae yaya feel free to send me an invite via dm. ill hopefully have time between work and stuff

Wow that's so fucking gross.
Aside from GonsoLiscenser, how do you know if a unitypackage is infected or not?

@damaniasakra bet, added. thank you!

@frontendedcat good question. I will get back to you with any information I find.
According to what I've seen so far, people recommend scanning unity packages with the VirusTotal website here: https://www.virustotal.com/gui/home/upload
I am not sure if this will work with a gonzo avatar however. if I had one I could test it.
This reddit page has some answers, such as

Though this seems a bit difficult for most users in the VRChat space who aren't super familiar with unity beyond VRChat parameters.One thing I've seen repeatedly is the question of:

I've also found this, though I am unsure if it would work with VRChat packages, especially with the gonso spyware. [https://github.com/Dean2k/PackageScanner](link url)

I'll also paste this although I'd highly reccomend fact checking. Everything I posted outside of this that's also listed here, I found through google searches and reading the pages and what they do, so yeah.

I may update my post with this information as well once I find a more solid solution.

@meowmei ;; REAL. i kinda wanna start an anti gonso project where we degonso avatars icl. strawbunny if you see this fuck you!!
@scenerae Do we know if ripping an uploaded avatar will be able to get the avatar without the gonso spyware? because surely it's not traveled into VRChat. If possible I wouldn't mind just having an archive of every one of these fucker's avatars's VRCAs.
I don't want to advocate for that if it causes a security risk to people though, at least until we know for sure. No shitty creator is that good to risk safety. Especially when 90% of these creators even strawbunny's basic bitch avatars look identical to each other if you squint. (I point that at the creator if she reads this btw, if you like their work thats fine I just dont like her). But still. I know people get attached, and its the principle.
Most of these creators slap on the same assets that can be downloaded for free or they find them here. (Lululemon used to just get leaked assets, slap it on an mmd avatar model and resell it for profit, for example), so they can a lot of the times really, REALLY easily be replicated because they aren't actually making anything except slapping things together in unity with vrcfury.
Off topic, but I don't believe for an iota of a second that they actually buy the shit they put on their kitbashes. I can't prove this, but I have a feeling. As greedy as they are with shit, as entitled as they are, and hostile, and shitty, I don't believe for a second they're perfect angels buying everything they're reselling. Like VexzCemetery who's got screenshots of them on VRModels. Or that other idiot FelisPasteles who had both a VRModels account and a Ripperstore account.
Sorry for the long winded writing. But yeah, I'd be careful if you proceed with that. kitbasher creators are obsessed with stalking down discords ;3 ugh

@uwuowoawa I can't find where ibdi uses the gonso spyware but I did find the other one and will add it.
if you could point me where to look for ibdi I'd appreciate it ^^

@blackviperxvi i AGREE. and to answer your question we have shiki who should be degonosoed? we have tally and shikis vrm files so far, im personally hoping to get my hands on bingus and doki
edit: adding on, since i plan on doing this for the sake of my own sanity and hatred for strawbunny (fuck you if youre reading this btw we dont want you here), i should be able to do it on my own so -
@uwuowoawa sorry to double ping you, but I found it. I also added ibdi. Their newer avatars either they don't disclose it or they've stopped using it, but I don't care, they used spyware in the first place so they're going on the list and shouldn't be trusted for safety reasons, to anyone who reads this

Both Confusey and Zoxl have also used gonso. As far as I'm aware ALL of Confusey's gonso avatars have been decrypted and leaked, so is it even worth it paying gonsodany the money to lace your avatars?
To me it seems like some sense of false hope or security for these creators. Imo I think creators don't even care about their consumers when it comes to confiding in gonso. I mean these avatars can't even have edits or changed made to the FBX, the least you can do is texture edit- which to me is shitty because I love editing my avatars in blender.
The creators do it for themselves, whatever will help them sleep at night knowing the public won't get a paid file: at the cost of unsafe pcs of customers who aren't even leakers.

It's a shame we can't test it somehow, perhaps by uploading it to a burner vrchat account? I don't know. If we can find a safe way to get past the gonso spyware that'd just be good for everybody

@shwimp If these people don't want people to edit the avatars, why can't they just sell it directly on the vrchat shop? its a way better solution than shilling out spyware. I have a hard time believing they aren't just doing it to feel dark and edgy, like stinky reddit moderators who like to get any leverage of power over others to completely abuse it.
In that video I posted in the top post here, I linked a video to a person talking about how they were put on mass ban lists and lost over 300$ worth of avatars from one shop because a different shop reported them over them helping their friend upload an avatar because they were new. They're 100% just doing it to farm information and use it to violently attack people because they can.
That's insane power to give someone. "I can see your IP and accounts, I can see what you're up to on your pc, what sites you go to, and I can weaponize all of it like a hardened criminal to try to ruin your life and destroy you as much as possible because I can."
These people are straight up pieces of shit.

@scenerae I wish jinxxy and payhip and gumroad knew it was spyware though. Might be good to make an expose proving its spyware somehow to show them but it'll be hard. unless we consistently report creators that use the gonso spyware. I can't even begin to wrap my head around how we'd do that beyond twitter and emails.
When I say expose btw I mean like, present them with proof in reports that it's spyware, since its sold as a simple "leaking protection tool" when we all know its not.
