Does Parse-Server verify if the client is legitimate for every request? #2640

Does parse-server/Parse-SDK-iOS-OSX implement any methods of verifying whether the client is in fact legitimate? This would be for preventing mass account creation and similar issues. Doing something like a checksum would be ideal (Take the account name, API version, and a known secret and hash them together so the server can detect a fake client.).

This post on reddit describes what I mean: https://www.reddit.com/r/iOSProgramming/comments/50lub5/what_stops_a_user_from_spamming_the_creation_of/

I would consider this issue a feature-request if something similar to a checksum isn't already implemented.
