FilePizza

Using WebRTC, FilePizza eliminates the initial upload step required by other web-based file sharing services. When senders initialize a transfer, they receive a "tempalink" they can distribute to recipients. Upon visiting this link, recipients' browsers connect directly to the sender’s browser and may begin downloading the selected file. Because data is never stored in an intermediary server, the transfer is fast, private, and secure.

- Warning Multiple folks on Reddit report adware, sandbox'd myself and got multiple viruses and adware in installation, even attempting to label as "not-a-virus;" -- has very malicious bundles. Would recommend tagging as such due to the installer's crap.
- Bundleware The installer prompts you to change your default search provider and install a media player. After installation it opens a webpage with an ad for another software install.
