- kiwibulldog 10y agoThe NSA doesn't have backdoors into Dropbox. Dropbox has had the highest rating from the EFF regarding user rights, transparency and privacy. https://www.eff.org/who-has-your-back-government-data-requests-2015#dropbox-report https://www.eff.org/who-has-your-back-government-data-reques...
- nacs 10y agoThat's pretty misleading. That article is judging what is written in the publicly stated privacy policy of each company. EFF has in no way verified the privacy policy is actually honored or that back-doors aren't installed in the companies' datacenters.
- r3bl 10y agoAnd let us not forget about the whole Drop Dropbox scenario which was very popular on HN at the time it was released: http://www.drop-dropbox.com http://www.drop-dropbox.com And that Dropbox was one of the companies in the whole PRISM scandal. I still use it, mostly to transfer files between my devices, but there's no way I'm gonna be using it for anything sensitive. Everything sensitive goes to my organization's ownCloud installation which I completely trust since... well, I'm the one maintaining it.

- tjelen 10y agoWhich is an alpha-version feature of a service that's currently in private beta. Looks great and I'd like to try it out, but currently I can't. (edit: missing word)
