tip: web requests should not be measured in Hz [hertz] as that is only used for periodic frequencies, which random events (like requests hitting a web server) are not! measure them in Bq [becquerel] instead

Oh, look! Another breakthrough in the art of making your web requests as compliant as a golden retriever at a dog show. 🤖🐶 Remember to worship the holy #useragent, genuflect at the altar of the robot #policy, and maybe you'll earn a crumb of access! 🎉✨

APIs & Web Requests:

Apps often communicate with external servers via #APIs or #webrequests, which can include sending sensitive #data & information without user consent.

Until recently, I'd always been under the impression that #cURL is "just" a #CLI tool for making #WebRequests, and therefore probably quite simple under the hood, with only a few (if any) very small #AttackSurfaces. Then I started following some #infosec / #cybersecurity researchers, and all of a sudden, I started hearing about a new cURL #CVE, almost every week it seemed.

Two lessons learned:
1. Nothing is ever as simple as it seems.
2. Security researchers are unbelievably smart.

Remember #hustlegpt? If you do, you’ll remember it was sold out to advertisers, but I’m now wondering whether it really is possible. Join me as I use OpenAI’s #GPT4 and Josh Olin’s #WebRequests to try profiting off ChatGPT!
