Excellent way of sending big files with privacy. Your file is encrypted first, then sent, so no one sees what it is except the recipient.
Is this actually being discontinued or just being put on hiatus? Hopefully the latter. Though it was a bit clunky at times--I usually had to upload the file I wanted to send two or three times before it would, I guess, "take"--I liked having this service available as a quick an easy alternative to some of the features of DropBox. Hope they'll bring it back!
Safe way to sent a file then automatic deleted from the website after 1 download.
Simple, effective, free and trustworthy.
It's Open Source and privacy focused, very convenient and efficient
No account needed. It's open source. I can trust Mozilla
Has end-to-end encryption, can handle rather large files (up to 2.5GB), and files get auto-deleted upon hitting quota or time. Good for files that you need sending just once.
