A software update this morning has seen two of three planned changes take place. With immediate effect, the following changes are in place:
Players wishing to wait for a cash game will join a room-wide waiting list and be randomly seated when a seat that matches their preference becomes available. Players joining a cash game will see the names of their opponents only once their first hand is dealt. As you can see in the image below, players are referred to as Player 1, Player 2 and so on, and their avatars are not displayed. However, if you join that table and receive hole cards, the names change to their screen names and an avatar displayed.

So sitting on a table, is just a lotto game now, with the software choosing a random seat. this has good and bad things attached to it. One of the good things is that they cant track you, and one of the bad things is that you can see the players on the tables, following at leas your own stats, gathered as history, saving you from seating on the same table with all inners for example
