The IP field in particular: no. It was a top of my head solution to a situation that's pretty much fucked. The scenario where an attacker gets control of a client machine is very hard to defend against, regardless of Auth scheme.

But hey, since jwt is so insecure, why don't you go ahead and hack my Minecraft account? I implemented the JWT -based Auth they use, and my username is iworkatmojang.

Get back to me when you've changed my password
