The screen flickered. A new tab opened on hdconvert.com. The grey box now displayed a single line of text:
Within seconds, the file converted. The video played perfectly. Her grandmother was blowing out candles. hdconvert.com otzyvy

"Thank you for your review. Your file is now part of the library. We have added 1 new otzyv from your webcam. Would you like to convert another?" The video played perfectly
The site had five stars now. Just not for the reasons anyone would guess.
The results were a ghost town. Two stars. One comment from "TechBear_2023" that read: "Converts fast. Keeps a copy for itself. You have been warned." The other reviews were in broken Russian: "Нормально, но после конвертации у меня взломали ноутбук" ("Normal, but after conversion my laptop was hacked").
