Filename suffix gets discarded if an identical file already exists about pomf HOT 3 OPEN

why'd you upload a song file as a jpeg in the first place, though?

That's not a bug , it's a feature. Why would you want to have 2 duplicate files in your storage?
Also if you want to discover files on host , just create a 10liner python script to try all combinations from a-z and within 26^6 requests you have all the hosting mapped.

In my case, I accidentally put the wrong video container file suffix on a video file, uploaded it, realised my mistake, and uploaded the same content with a new filename.

I can also imagine situations where two files of different types can have the same content, for example one plain text file and Markdown file. An empty file is probably valid in many file formats.

Finally, it might be a way to interfere with other users. For example, if an evildoer knows or can guess that a certain file soon will be uploaded, he could upload an identical file under a different name and thus ruin the experience for the legitimate users.
