    Don’t get me wrong, this is cool, but is there some reason not to extract a .zip file locally?

    I’ve been using Linux, UNIX for a long time so I don’t know if it’s a Windows thing or what.

      A compacted archive could be used as an attack vector.

      • Zip Bombs
      • Code execution through a vulnerability in the extracting algorithm

      Both of them are valid for any OS.
