I installed B9S + Luma3DS on my old 3DS to confirm that I could do it, and I'm now considering doing the same to my New 3DS (my data was transferred from the Old to the New 3DS, so the old one was essentially factory fresh, and has no NNID, titles, etc.). However, all my save data, bought games, etc. are on the New 3DS, and while I'm not to concerned about bricking it, I'm quite worried about it getting banned.
While I've seen some sources mention that the ban can be completely bypassed by disabling SpotPass telemetry and hiding your online status in the friends list, others suggest that Nintendos' servers can tell the legitimacy of the titles your playing/have played regardless of these settings, and that banning is only a matter of time.
To sum up my concerns:
-What specifically is used by nintendo to determine if a console should be banned?
-What methods do/do not allow you to bypass a ban?
-What actions should be avoided to prevent bans?
I'm aware that many CFW users have avoided the ban, accidentally or otherwise, so I know its' possible. I just want to be safe; I care very deeply about my 3DSs' online connectivity, and would be crushed if I lost access to that.
P.S. I have looked at this thread, which seems to be what most people link to on the subject, but its' rather confusing to read through and is highly speculative, which makes me concerned that some of what it mentions could be inaccurate, or that I'm missing important details.
