I hacked a dating app (and how not to treat a security researcher)

People need to be forced to think twice before taking in such sensitive information as a passport or even just addresses. This sort of thing cannot be allowed to be brushed off as just a bunch of kids making an app.

There should to be some kind of government operated identity confirmation service that is secure/private.

Or by someone "government-like" such as Apple or Google.

Government is the worst possible solution to every problem.

(not an attack on you. I have to say that every time I see someone say anything along the lines of "the government should do it")
