On the evening of January 30th, I checked my phone one last time before going to bed as we millennials do to simulate waking up with a hangover. Tweets started showing up on my feed about a hack related to Houseparty. I notified Karim Rahal and Karel Knibbe that what was unfolding on Twitter could be something we could look into the next day. At first, we did not think much of it but agreed it would be interesting to explore further.
