File system abuse Memes

Ah, the classic file system loophole that no cloud provider wants you to know about! Why pay for extra storage when you can just cram all your data into the filename itself? Sure, changing the actual filename doesn't affect file size - that would be too easy. But encoding your entire database as a series of increasingly monstrous filenames? Pure evil genius. Somewhere, a filesystem engineer is having heart palpitations just thinking about this. And yes, there's probably that one developer who's actually tried this in production. We don't talk about them anymore.
