Most of us older computer nerds and coders certainly tried to hack Facebook back in the 00's. To answer Grandma's question, no, we cannot.

Back in undergrad, before Facebook went HTTPS only, I would setup "free wifi" and steal people's cookies for shits and giggles. Use the cookies to authenticate with FB and send random messages to people.

Looking back, I probably shouldn't have been doing that. Definitely illegal.

You know that stuff you post on lemmy is probably on databases everywhere for like, forever, right?

Who's gonna press charges for the "hey mom, today I ate my poo" message they sent 10 years ago ?

No one is going to press charges about me fucking around with their FB accounts 10 years ago.
