Quick! Give those students one million dollars in VC funding!
Just think about it. We have more and more flash-in-the-pan shoddily written apps in mobile.
And because they're flash-in-the-pan, for a time, they're popular. And because they're shoddily written, they're easily exploited at the peak of their popularity, so you can amass a ton of personal information from the app users and abuse it any way you want.
Hacking crappy mobile apps may soon become the new "my WordPress blog got hacked". Think of the potential, it can be a whole new industry. Not to mention all the fake diplomas, mortgages, Russian brides and Cialis pills that'll get sold in there.
