Nexon could probably reduce 80% of the hacking just by changing their arbitrary encryption key every time they release a new version.
Very few people know how to backtrace to find the new key, and if those people hadn't just handed it out to the rest of the hacking community we wouldn't be as heavily inundated with them as we are now.
If that thing changed every time it'd mean every tool had to be redeveloped every release, rather than then using the same toys patch after patch.
It's not having what you want - It's wanting what you've got.
