Comment on I use Zip Bombs to Protect my Server
raltoid@lemmy.world 1 week agoTL;DR: It’s illegal to have publically available or share.
Making it illegal to make one for research purposes on your own hardware is not illegal. Or if it is, I wouldn’t mind seeing someone challenge that with the EU.

For research purposes you could make it password protected, which would make it legal, though. Like i said having one is a gray area, because the law is made extremly vague. Like i said i dont know of any judgements about it, but it is still a possibility. If you life in germany and are inclined for an archive bomb and care about your legal safety contact a lawyer beforehand
