Minecraft Mods Allow you to Disable Mojang's Controversial Chat Reporting Feature.
Minecraft: Java Edition's newest update added a new player reporting tool that lets players report "inappropriate chat messages or dangerous behaviour" for moderators to review. It's a nice thing on its own however, a lot of Minecraft players aren't thrilled that it extends to private servers.
Naturally, since this is Minecraft players have changed their opinions about what they like and dislike. Mods are available that remove messages from your profile.
There are a few mods that appear to do it effectively. No Chat Reports by Aizistral appears to "strips cryptographic signatures" that associate the messages you send with your Minecraft account, and it is compatible with the Forge and Fabric modding APIs. NoEnryption by Doclic does the same thing for Minecraft Spigot server software and No Chat Reports by TechnicallyCoded, also for Spigot claims to be "currently the only plugin that can replicate fully the vanilla behavior" and can be used with multiple languages.
The mods are used at your own risk. They work both client and server-side, but when you install them on a client-side servers, they can stop you from joining if they decide to make sure that their profiles are secure. This is fine, and means you shouldn't be permitted to use these mods to go harassing people who need the protections moderation can provide.
Mojang moderating their game's community seems reasonable but it's also logical why players are worried about private spaces being subjected that moderation. Moderation teams aren't infallible and players are concerned about being removed from their own servers for comments that are taken out of context. Even if moderation was infallible, I also believe it's not unreasonable for some players to choose to opt out of moderation, with a full understanding of what that entails.
Mojang received feedback from users after the update was released to test. "We acknowledge that private servers operate in a way that is independent from Mojang Studios, and many make use of this independence to develop amazing Minecraft innovations that benefit the community," they wrote on the Minecraft website. "But it is a standard that Minecraft servers of any size have to adhere to the EULA and the Commercial Usage Guidelines, as well as our Community Standards. Everyone should have the safety of their Minecraft experience wherever they choose to play."
Mojang also has terribly timed the release of this humorous video about Minecraft being updated in evil ways by a devious leader:
Although Mojang might say that players have always had to abide by "Community Standards", it's also worth noting that one Minecraft's most notorious servers is 2b2t, which is a illegal anarchy server that is that is known for its vulgarity, trolling, swastikas and more. It's a terrible place. I would never want to play there. I imagine Mojang would prefer it did not exist. However, it's important to the culture as it was included in the Design/Play/Disrupt show at London's Victoria and Albert Museum.
