Reply to comment by philipjfry1578 in ELI5: How do the people who make zip bombs compress it down so much? by [deleted]
Only if it's something simple, like you could compress an incredibly large blank white image down really tiny. And then you could edit the zip file to say there's actually a million of them in there.
But for the most part that's not going to work as well.
