Hello, BytesBench!
SGVsbG8sIEJ5dGVCZW5jaCE=Base64 is an encoding format for moving bytes through text-friendly systems. It is not encryption.
No. Base64 changes how bytes are represented; anyone can decode it. Do not use it as a security or privacy measure.
Yes. BytesBench converts text as UTF-8, so accented characters, symbols, and non-Latin scripts round-trip safely.
Yes. Whitespace is ignored while decoding, but the decoded value must be valid UTF-8 text.
