Has anyone taken a deep dive look into rclone crypto? I looked around but didn't find anything in a quick search. Only thing I've seen so far is https://rclone

  Not any more than this HN comment [1] and its replies, one of which is mine. It's using golang's own extensions for secretbox [2], a NaCl-secretbox-compatible implementation, and it's adhering to the uniqueness of nonces as far as I can tell [3]. In other words, to my non-crypto-expert eyes, there is no glaring misuse of the "golang.org/x/crypto/nacl/secretbox" API that jumps out at me; I haven't looked at that package to see if it's okay.
