I have it on good authority that the post is largely incorrect and that the Android app had been reverse engineered but nothing beyond that.
Edit: A quote on the matter from my friend working to archive the content,
"so tldr if you care/want to share on HN: the android app either used or had references to an api endpoint which let you transform a sequential id into the uuids that are used on the other endpoints. someone enumerated that."
"afaik that's literally it"
Further Edit:
https://github.com/d0nk/parler-tricks https://github.com/d0nk/parler-tricks is what they're using to enumerate the resources
- whymauri 6y agoAny more details? I know one major red flag for me was all the verification Parler was requesting. SSNs, and all that. There's no way that can end well.
- Grimm1 6y agoI know someone working to archive Parlers content on the archive team, but everything being downloaded is publicly available urls.
- SubiculumCode 6y ago"I have it on good authority" that's some grade-A trolling right there. Congrats. All the Qanon et al.posts start the same way. i.e. I have it on good authority that....X will happen by Y tonight. blah blah blah. The storm.
- Grimm1 6y agoNo idea what you're on about, I just know a guy working on https://www.archiveteam.org/ https://www.archiveteam.org/
- SubiculumCode 6y agoPlease accept my apology. I had been perusing the crazy on Parler to get an idea of what is going around there, and it put me in a bit of a foul mood.
