I´m pretty sure FT doesn´t supply the airlines with a list of usernames/IP addresses etc.

But anyone who posts regularly in this forum probably has posted enough information to be easily identified by AC. The combination of status, location and 1-2 reports on flights taken should usually be sufficient for a 100% match.
