Anyone know what happens when you allow bloomberg.com to use your camera when you finish reading the article?



It adds a photo of you to the certificate, and then allows you to download it.


Can't be good, if Bloomberg is for it


Do you consider to be a photo for your certificate of achievement to be good?


Are you naive enough to not believe the photo will be saved along with a host of other metaData to bloomberg's server?


Well, you could read the source of course, to see whether the photo data is sent to the server or whether the cert is generated client-side. And then there is this: https://github.com/bloombergmedia/whatiscode/


I could be convinced either way.
