Please do. Backblaze lists x-amz-sdk-checksum-algorithm as unsupported [1]. Would be great to have it supported to be able to use it with Mattermost and other tools that use min.io for S3.

> and taking down all of Liberia’s Internet—to name a few examples.
This did not happen [1] as was documented here[2], here and here[3]. It spices up the story but in truth, one of local telcos was affected but they accounted for less than a third of Liberia's Internet traffic. The weekend-like Internet traffic seen on that day was because of a national holiday.
Additional source: I lived in Liberia during that time managing the local IXP.
