Good to know
Base64 is an encoding, not compression or encryption. It increases the data size compared with the original binary file. Avoid embedding large images in HTML or CSS; normal image URLs are usually easier to cache.
A few useful answers

No. Anyone with the string can decode it. Do not use encoding to hide sensitive data.
