    They probably paid a million for this vibe coded app. I am confident that I could somehow make this.

    Super common here in Germany that sensitive data is handled via crappy apps that essentially have backdoors.

    If you break them and report the bug you can be prosecuted under some hacking paragraph.

      Merkels famous quote (“Das Internet ist für uns alle Neuland” - “The internet is new ground for all of us”) still holds true in 2026 lol. Literal third world countries are more advanced when it comes to digitization and stuff lol.

    “Technically ready”, as per the post the dude replied to. It’s “good enough” to fool idiots. For people that care to scratch the surface, the veneer falls off super easy

    This Meta’s stupid attempt to not get sued for addicting kids. They want to force the problem on the entire world, so they cant be held responsible. They are pushing these same laws in several countries, Brazil just passed a near identical law.

    Meta would steal your right to privacy, and force you to identify yourself to every single electronic device you own just to avoid being held liable for harming children. Absolutely disgusting. Zuck belongs in the deepest pits of hell.

    And they think I’m going to add my ID into an app?! Let alone an unsafe one. No, thank you. I’ll just carry a physical card, which is already mandatory.

    As far as I understood, the app only contains a token proving you are 18 or older. Nothing more…

    So what potential breach is he taking about?

    Or did I miss something?
