Isn't this how over a decade ago people "hacked" Google by hosting a similar file on google sites/blogs when that was a thing? How's anyone still using this method for verification in this day and age :/

DVDs are still available in many stores for movies, but there's nothing mainstream I can think of that still uses CD-Rs.

A year or so ago I made a post on reddit/TIL that referenced CD-R and it got deleted by a mod because "CD-R is not a known thing" or something like that. The mod must've been too young to ever used a CD-R. That was kind
