@Fast-Nop That would be a "platform" for a corruption service.
-
@Parzi
That's sounds actually pretty useful for testing stuff like data-recovery or integrity-checking. -
@metamourge And teenagers who didn't do their homework
-
@metamourge i was thinking more ROM corruption but yeah, true.
@alexbrooklyn ALSO true, but would they be able to use a RESTful API? -
@heyheni whoneedslobbyists.net
-
@Fast-Nop We already get that standard.

-
@powerfulparadox cut out the middleman, promote corruption from the comfort of home like a pro
-
@Demolishun
*stares in KGB* -
@Parzi it naturally follows corruption I guess
-
@Parzi add a simple ui

@heyheni @powerfulparadox sitesifellfor.org

@kescherRant yeah but does that have a RESTful API and have it as a service?
@alexbrooklyn well ofc it'll have a UI, not everyone's gonna be able to use the API -
@Gregozor2121 i was thinking for automation and in-program use without too much overhead (because legacy devices are still used in places, and sometimes you just don't wanna corrupt a file on a CPU while compiling or something. Plus user error is nigh eliminated so you have a 0% chance of hosing a system via CAAS instead of on-client where someone might do something stupid.)

@AlgoRythm a 15MB response is kinda large...

@Parzi not really.
Idea: Corruption as a service.
RESTful API where you send a URL to a file, an intensity and a method, and if the file's under some size, we return a URL to the now-corrupted file on the server, which is removed after like 5 minutes of inactivity or something.
Depending on method and intensity, corruption amount varies from one byte to every byte being either replaced or added to/subtracted from by a certain amount.
