Why can you join Minecrfat premium servers with cracked bedrock but not with cracked java?

So title, joining premium or even java servers with geysermc from cracked bedrock will work, but why? If you can't join with cracled java why can you with cracked bedrock?

I am prolly woefully out of date, but there was an option in the java server config to allow or disallow cracked clients. Please let me know if I am out of date so I can forget this info

You can still allow cracked clients. The downsides are that, because minecraft doesnt verify the accounts, if you set your name to someone with op, you get op and you need a plugin to be able to have a skin that is not default

Ok, so basically as it was. I had worldguard and worldedit and many more I no longer remember hehe

On the cracked severs I used to play, they used to have a plugin that would make users register a password when they first visited and type it on all subsequent logins, to protect users' accounts.

There's an option to allow it to run offline and that will allow it to work with cracked clients. There's no user authentication, so only make the server accessible to people you trust over a VPN.

Last server I hosted wasseveral years ago, forget what version, and I had set that option for the 3 people that couldn't purchase at that time. They eventually did purchase clients and I went no cracks allowed.

Thank you
