How do I check Supabase RLS policies?

Run `SELECT * FROM pg_policies WHERE schemaname = 'public';`—flag `(true)` quals or missing rows.

Is Supabase RLS safe by default?

No—enabled doesn't mean protected. Dashboard lies; audit manually.

They prioritize working demos over prod security—`USING (true)` passes tests fast.

You launch on Supabase, users flock in, then bam—someone reads every profile. RLS enabled? Sure, but wrong policies turn it into a sieve.
