> CYBERSECURITY_PHISHING_FOA (likely Foreign Origin Actor)

That’s probably “Family of Apps” instead, referring to the family of apps that Meta owns (e.g. IG, FB, WhatsApp, etc)

The source code is really similar

Not seeing Brian Lovin’s name in the LICENSE file in Nym either...

They now have two production build variations (I’m guessing two Webpack config):

modern: ES6+, less polyfill

legacy: ES5, more polyfill

The appropriate variation is served by detecting browser’s version from the User-Agent string

By gzipped size I’m referring to the polyfill bundle itself

update: thanks for disambiguating the title, OP!

New comment by wongmjane in "Launch HN: FeaturePeek (YC S19) – Front-end review for the whole team"

wongmjane — Tue, 30 Jul 2019 22:31:45 +0000

I've never labelled myself as "leaker" nor whatever I discovered as "leaks"

That's what I find funny/absurd about the amount of stuffs I found just by diving the app's code

Maybe if companies stop bloating their apps with the features that only 1% of the world will ever be able to use, I wouldn't have been able to discover all these?
