Feature
It was a long and great time with you. But you are a bit old and rusty now and there is this new young girl in town. She looks so pretty and I think you know that we had some issues in the past. Looks like we need to change our relationship a little bit.
The binwalk extractor is already unmaintained for a quite long time period. In this time, we jumped in with multiple extractor modules directly into EMBA to proceed. In the last year we have looked quite interested at the development process of Unblob.
We already integrated Unblob as an evaluation module a while ago. Currently it is integrated as a second extraction framework to jump in if our main binwalk/EMBA approach failed.
Now it is time to change the game and to make Unblob to our main extractor and use binwalk only in the rare case Unblob failed.
Absolute!
