🙄 fucking user-hostile "security by obscurity" wankers
It's the dumbest "security" rule I ever heard of. It's a "limited access" shared by almost 30 million people.
Even if you manage to log in here, there's nothing much to browse here. It's just the mObywatel's UI components' code.
Which by itself is useless.
I wanted to award it worst app name but translated from Polish it’s mCitizen which is a pretty dope name.
In Denmark, the state is worried that releasing especially the ui code, will leed to more phishing. Thats their excuse for not releasing government projects source code.
Because replicating UI design is of course the hardest thing about phishing attacks, making them virtually impossible without the source code...god damn that is such a bullshit reason.
