Decoding Process: Y29weXJpZ2h0ZWQ= to copyrighted

About the '=' Padding

The '=' at the end of "Y29weXJpZ2h0ZWQ=" is padding. Base64 encoding requires the input length to be divisible by 4. When it's not, '=' characters are added as padding. These padding characters are represented as '000000' in binary but are not used in the final decoded output.

Step 1: Map Base64 Characters to Binary

Base64 Character	Binary Value	Decimal Value
Y	011000	24
2	110110	54
9	111101	61
w	110000	48
e	011110	30
X	010111	23
J	001001	9
p	101001	41
Z	011001	25
2	110110	54
h	100001	33
0	110100	52
Z	011001	25
W	010110	22
Q	010000	16
=	padding (000000)	-

Step 2: Group Bits into Bytes

The binary string is grouped into 8-bit chunks (1 byte each):

01100011 01101111 01110000 01111001 01110010 01101001 01100111 01101000 01110100 01100101 01100100 00

Step 3: Convert Binary to ASCII

Binary Value	ASCII Character
01100011	c
01101111	o
01110000	p
01111001	y
01110010	r
01101001	i
01100111	g
01101000	h
01110100	t
01100101	e
01100100	d
00

When combined, these characters form the decoded string: "copyrighted"
