Yep, but at least that would be fun, don't you agree?

I also wonder why didn't anybody set up a Snapchat bot yet: it could successfully impersonate multiple humans by forwarding snaps between pairs of unsuspecting users, gathering a lot of data that way.

Actually, I know of one set up by a friend: snaproulettebot. You send a snap, and it sends you a random one back later from another user. Being called "snaproulettebot" makes it pretty obvious what it is, but you could do it in a more opaque way.
Definitely, lol.

That's a pretty sneaky idea, I'm sure its possible with all the clients now available!
