I was a bit surprised how much metadata Apple includes for this shared picture (in some of the XHR responses). Not only your email address (the same that's on your HN profile so I assume that doesn't hurt) but also what seems to be your device's name ("i" followed by a part of your last name) as well as what looks to be a unique ID of your device and your timezone (are you GMT-6?).

Exactly! Especially if you're using modules that include some sort of binary and build your function on macOS it's a pain -- I ended up using a Docker-based workflow to get the correct binaries into the node_modules.

The scammers here [0] used a .tk domain as well. Might be because there's hardly any identification needed for the registration if I see it correctly.

It looks like it still only has 2.4GHz wifi. Is there a reason?
