Hey,

I've just implemented Firebase to my web app, but the api key is accessible to everyone. I've set all the rules so they can't make harm the database, but I'm worried about if somebody wants to use my api key to create an alternate app and spam me with requests so I'll pass my limits.

Thank you,
Kristof

The API key is safe to share publicly. See this thread for a similar discussion.

Cheers,
Jacob
