One of the key elements of Upspin is that all content is signed and encrypted by the client. Sharing is totally in control of the content owners, and the servers need not be trusted at all.
- drdaeman 10y agoAh, thanks. Article didn't have a link to upspin.io, so I've missed this link. Yes, with client-side signing it makes more sense. So it's something similar to Keybase Filesystem, except distributed? That's a good thing, then.
- enneff 10y agoYeah it was a mistake not to include that link in the blog post. It is definitely similar to Keybase Filesystem, and a few other things too. There are many axes for making trade offs in this space, and I think Upspin set of trade offs is unique. We'll see if it works well for people.
