PostVibe coders are getting sued.

Vibe coders are getting sued. People are launching apps with real users but skipping the boring stuff that can actually kill the product. A developer with 20+ years of experience just shared the pre-launch checklist every AI builder should run: → privacy policy if you collect user data → know where user data is stored → check security headers → scan against OWASP basics → look for SQL injection / XSS / auth issues → make sure .env values are not leaking → check API responses for sensitive data → remove secrets from logs → never expose API keys in frontend code → move keys server-side or behind a proxy → add rate limits before someone burns your API bill This is what most vibe coders are missing. AI can help you build the app. But if you launch without security, privacy, and abuse checks... you didn't ship a product. you shipped a liability.
