This is pretty tame compared to some actual, practical ones such as https://github.com/apachecn/CDNDrive

For people who don't read Chinese: it encodes data into ~10M blocks in PNG and then uploads (together with a metadata/index file as an entry point) to various Chinese social media sites that don't re-compress your images. I knew people have used it to store* TBs after TBs data on them already.

*Of course, it would be foolish to think your data is even remotely safe "storing" them this way. But it's a very good solution for sharing large files.
