The beauty of AC being open source is that all those who can are able to modify the source as they see fit, and play with any client they compile; regardless of what some may think. This is a freedom that's ingrained in AC, and in its current team of coders; it won't change.
We put a lot of trust in the players we play with. Sometimes that trust is abused, in an obvious manner, and those abusers are removed from the game (to the best of our ability) for a period of time. Also, there will always be those who abuse that trust in a less obvious way. If you are not one of them, your only solace is that you know you are clean. Sadly, there is no protection from these weak-minded, pathetic souls. Don't even bother feeling sorry for them; they don't have the empathy to understand your compassion, and will simply use it as a weakness to exploit. :)
