Research direction
The issue reports that the user gets banned quickly when using the hack. To investigate, first review the repository's code for any anti detection mechanisms or updates needed. Check the issue comments for any maintainer responses or user provided debug logs. Since the issue is from 2016, consider whether the problem is still relevant and if there are known workarounds.
