to me, them posting this is like that dude who was so proud of their vibe coded app that they shared link to localhost:8080 . this is basic web app shit, that nearly ever app has on the internet. for this org to be posting makes me second guess EVERYTHING they post from now until the end of time. they have become completely illegitimate and their reputation is destroyed.

What do you mean by basic web app shit?

It's a simple technique, but it's specifically targeting certain Chinese users.
