On: DataKit: It's like Parse, just open source. Written in node.js and ObjC.

It doesn't matter whether you use SSL or not. If it's in your app, it can be found quite easily.

Parse provides you with a few different keys and also offers ACL functionality. I'm still not too crash hot on expecting the client to setup an ACL on their own objects though...

[lukeholder → haileys]

can you propose how an client can authenticate with this type of service without a key?
