f → 0, t → 1, decoding the binary yields gxaqzp

i didn’t figure out how to get this one, i brute-forced file endings, but the answer was jpg
The decoded URL leads to another brief puzzle, which can be solved by opening the image in Notepad++ or a hex editor to find the key phrase
Thanks @Puzzle!

@Puzzle : maybe it wasn’t noticeable here, but on discord multiple people were trying to solve it! So you did get a few more people going on it.
Yeah, @Lilith , would be awesome
