I'm pretty sure the article declares the game was programmed in exactly the way you are suggesting it should be, where you only get the information required at the time it's needed, and you only send actions for yourself.

The exploit was that one was able to set up a second client and connect to the currently ongoing game but in the opponents seat, once this was done they could sene actions as the opponent including the forfeit action.
