and the repeated 26 (and that no number is higher) makes me sense it's an alphanumeric cipher.
If we say a is 1 and z is 26, then the decoded is zeziyvzyzi
if we say a is 26 and z is 1, then the decoded is avarbeabar
which seems like not complete gibberish.
rtcp{zeziyvzyzi}
or rtcp{avarbeabar}
work as flags.
rctp{a_phrase_spaced_like_so}
bc(1)
I get this for various output bases:echo "obase=16; ibase=2; 00110010" | bc
32
echo "obase=10; ibase=2; 00110010" | bc
50
echo "obase=08; ibase=2; 00110010" | bc
62
Also this:
for i in $(urldecode $(base64 --decode ~/Downloads/Beginner\ 10.txt | sed -e 's/^/%/' -e 's/ /%/g') | sed -e '-----/0/g' -e 's/.----/1/g' -e 's/ //g'); do printf "\x"$(echo "obase=16; ibase=2; $i" | bc) ; done
26 5 26 9 25 22 26 25 26 9
is the exact same output as from CyberChef, which proves that is in fact what it's doing. Unfortunately I don't know what these strings of numbers mean.
The people behind Covid Watch (https://www.covid-watch.org/about) are looking for help on Java development and/or help with containerizing their backend server:

There's probably a lot more to do on that project, too, it seems cool!
