This essentially means that Vercel got hacked by a bunch of teenage script kiddies. Though on the positive side, we'll probably see some arrests soon.

Yeah, I'm curious why a game cheat is allowed to run in the first place. Do these companies not have device controls, or do they just not care?

Feels like the employee pulled a LastPass Plex move.

Roblox doesn’t care about anything other than squeezing money out of addicted children.

It’s not a competitive platform like say WoW or overwatch; nobody is really there to win and there are zero stakes if you do or don’t.
