RE: Exploratory Analysis Shows World of Opportunity with JSON and STEEM
Cool.
Is there a record of who adds the custom JSON?
Any authorization to add a field that already exists and is being pulled for data?
Can anyone add anything, like any account add info for any JSON data and imitate an app, such as adding bogus data?
Could I just add followers to people who didn't really follow?
Can I add SM data just by adding a custom JSON object?
Thanks!
Great questions
"Is there a record of who adds the custom JSON?"
In that table, not really, but there is posting auth recorded for apps that needs it. But it doesnt say which app it came from. Im sure if I mix this table with another one I could get the results. But I havent looked.
"Any authorization to add a field that already exists and is being pulled for data?"
Not sure I understand this question
Can anyone add anything, like any account add info for any JSON data and imitate an app, such as adding bogus data?
Hmm great question. I'm not a dev so I might not answer that correctly. But I am sure it requires some sort of conscious and authority, if not then it would be possible.
"Could I just add followers to people who didn't really follow? "
not unless you have the posting authority
Can I add SM data just by adding a custom JSON object? again you would need posting authority
So when a new field is created, it is associated to the original posting authority that created it, and no other account can add to that field? I thought anyone can add a
followto the custom JSON. Similarly, anyone could add any field, and fabricate data. One needs to always check the author of the data added to a field I would think.
