Facebook likes 10 year old’s bug hack

@ 2016/05/06
Social Notworking giant Facebook has paid a $10,000 reward to a 10-year-old Finnish boy for finding a glitch in its picture sharing app Instagram.

Jani, whose last name was not released for privacy reasons, is the youngest ever recipient of Facebook’s “bug bounty.”

“I wanted to see if Instagram’s comment field could stand malicious code. Turns out it couldn’t,” Jani told Finland’s Iltalehti newspaper.

Facebook said the glitch was fixed in February and the reward was paid in March.
