When will Kabam address piloting in AW

Piloting in AW is a major issue in top brackets (master/platinum). It should be fairly easy for Kabam to detect same device ID logging into multiple accounts during the attack phase. I know the usual answer is to open a ticket because it needs to be investigated but in this case we need an in-game solution/feature to prevent it from happening (or at least discourage it).
Will Kabam address this issue before the end of AW season?
*Piloting- few highly skilled players exploring AW map with maximum attack bonus (3-5 deaths per war)

Hopefully they can think of a way to prevent it so that they don’t have to spend time, money and resources investigating every war that is suspected of piloting. A solution that prevents or makes it more difficult to pilot. No idea how they could do it but I’m sure they are smart enough to think of something 😁
1) Same IP: Some of us live/work/game together and connect through the same wifi so using IP as a detection method would ban/block people that happen to be in the same location. Some Mobile/Cellular providers do NOT give you a public IP, but rather NAT everyone through a single IP address.
2) Device ID: Again players often share devices, especially when you work/play/live in the same place. We have a couple dozen players in my work place and we often use each other devices and some have formed work alliances. When you have enough people playing and scheduled break times, someone will pass around their device that way if someone else had forgotten to bring theirs with them, has low battery, or device is tied up doing something else they can still play.
There are so many variations and circumstances (as some people have mentioned here already) that it would be almost impossible to do it and even when they address it somehow, there will be a lot of players with legit circumstances will get screwed and that will results in more tickets for kabam and more threads on the forum.
I really hope this gets fixed, though I doubt it will ever happen.
Here is the way i see it from their pov
Well, it actually does hit them. If an Alliance is using pilots and only suffering a handful of deaths, then the less skilled players aren't buying pots and revives to clear their lanes.
Changing the rules because people refuse to abide by them is not a solution. There are reasons it's a rule that range from security to creating unfair advantages. The bottom line is, if people aren't on, they can't move. Simple as that. More than one person should not be doing the work for one Account. It undermines the entire fairness of the game, and if people care more about Rewards than respecting the rules, then perhaps they need to be a member of a group less fanatical in its devotion, like the PLO.
It’s not as complex as it seems. I read a few comments here about sharing phones at work etc.
If same device ID logs in to multiple accounts in the same alliance during the attack phase, it’s a red flag. They can detect if you’re fighting in AW
Except for when you are in alliance doing war with your co-workers that pass a device around....
Still seams like a red flag. 30 people or 10 people would have more than one device available. Seams super fissssshy
Hopefully they will look into this.....
Just as i hope they look into the use of one hit mods in wars....
And hiring mercinaries who use mods also for wars....
Hopefully they look into all of this soon as it costs alot of people alot of wars
To you it seems fishy, to others it's reality. 10+ probably could be a red flag, but It would be dangerous to ban for it. Especially since IOS outperforms most Android's it's not uncommon for that to be the device passed. I've watched this at work, with them projecting it on a big screen in the break room.
They have some detection methods, but they better be 100% fool proof or don't bother. That's the point.
