[https://onemillioncheckboxes.com/ One Million Checkboxes](OMCB) was a viral experimental site created by [https://eieio.games eieio] in 2024. It was a public sandbox consisting of one million checkboxes, where checking a box checked it for all users.
 
The layout of checkboxes varied according to browser size, so as to prevent trolls from drawing obscene content using the boxes. But despite this restriction, several users managed to hide images in the site by treating it as a 1000x1000 checkbox canvas. Those same users also figured out a way to write text in the site's source code by strategically checking boxes to encode messages in binary.
 
The site was locked two weeks after its release. Its story is detailed in [https://x.com/itseieio/status/1829268247105138764 this Twitter thread].
