Robert Sandie
Am a huge fan of Failblog and Backblaze.
Brian Brushwood from Scamschool would be proud of this….
Was able to prank Backblaze on Failblog yesterday by submitting a screenshot generated by a modified URL on Backblaze.
Allow me to share how I did this:
I realized when I checked my download status with backblaze they left the variables in the URL to come up with a length
https://secure.backblaze.com/online-backup-speed.htm?os=mac&mb=63264&throttle=50&kbitspersec=4264
For 63GB still have 24 days to complete the backup and it’s all visible in the URL:
So all I did was change the total space to something very high (630 TB) in the URL:
Submitted to failblog, and bam.
It would be cool if Backblaze said something more graceful, like. “WOAH, you have a ton of stuff.. it’ll be a few years before this is complete.”
If you enjoyed this article, please consider sharing it!

You go into the settings page. It's right there "How long will my first download take"
I see, it's not actually on their website, it's within the Control Panel. That was not clear.
It says "How long will my first backup take?", even though this is NOT my first backup.
Do you mind if I quote a few of your articles as long as I provide credit and sources back to your site?
My blog site is in the exact same area of interest as yours and my visitors would
