A ten-year-old hacker finds a flaw on Instagram and gets $10,000
A 10-year-old hacker is 10-thousand dollars richer after finding a security flaw in the Instagram APP .
The boy, only identified as “Jani” from Finland says the bug he found allowed him to delete other people’s comments.
He even told a Finnish newspaper that he could have deleted comments from Justin Bieber if he wanted to.
Facebook started a “Bug Bounty” program in 2011 that rewards hackers when they report tech security issues.
And, “Jani” is the youngest person to receive that reward. He says he plans to spend his money on a bike and a soccer ball.
