        @theodric @phloggen Fantastic advice. I also noted that files larger than 2GB are exempt from scanning?!?

        Thanks. I’ll just add 2GB of randomness before my payload, then…

        Checkmark security (or compliance for some) at its best. 👍

                      « Additionally, Microsoft has methods for scanning the contents of password-protected zip files, such as extracting possible passwords from the bodies of an email or the name of the file itself »

                      Isn’t that technically a cybercrime in most countries 🤔

                          @theodric this reads like an LLM response, so is probably just that

                              @theodric This has to be an LLM response... even leaving alone this horrible security advice, the whole response is trying to do the exact opposite of what the OP asked!

                                      @theodric “Microsoft has methods for scanning the contents of password-protected zip files, such as extracting possible passwords from the bodies of an email or the name of the file itself[.]” Cool and normal stuff, your storage provider telling you that they are essentially cracking your data.

                                        Does it suggest "password" or "ABC123"?

                                          @LeoRJorge @theodric Offering irrelevant / off topic advice is pretty normal for humans where complicated or obscure questions are in play (source: reading lots of StackOverflow and forum responses written before the advent of stochastic parrots). That said, I do agree this is likely slop since the point about the passwords would have to be hallucinated.
