Hey Jamest,

I hear you about "...Firebase-powered apps are only as secure as the developers make them..." but I guess, you should try to do your best in order to 'tunnel' developers into the best practices of validating input/output and not relying on the client to send 'safe' data. I know it's easy to say and hard to do :) Nevertheless, it's a great goal to have.

Good luck! Ido
