    Bad Apple is a black-and-white music video that gets used for a lot of tech demos. It has the right combination of length, contrast, and recognizability at very low resolution.

    As an example, here’s Bad Apple running on an NES an 8-bit system that isn’t normally capable of deciding video.

    The thumbnail is for this video, which renders Bad Apple in the style of the black lines used to redact allegedly sensitive information from the documents released in the Epstein Files.
