But they dont give out maps to deobfuscate afterwards. Its common practice since Java is interpreted and therefore easily reversible. But if you give out the deobfuscation maps, you could just not obfuscate it. Like what’s the point in encrypting information, if you publicly make the key to decrypt available. Its basically not encrypted at that point.
No it’s not Even you can access the Java Source Code with a little bit of reverse engineering. Also decompiling Minecraft is allowed by even Mojang

Well yeah it’s Java but why do they vorher obfuscating their code in the first place?
🤷 I think It’s a common practice among Java developers. Most Mods developers do it too I guess.
