SpiderOak's plans are pretty cheap. Also you could use S3+Glacier for storing just about anything. I would be surprised if AWS scanned your files for "inappropriate" content.

Yeah, probably. The AUP for Amazon (including S3) has this restriction: >Offensive Content. Content that is defamatory, obscene, abusive, invasive of privacy, or otherwise objectionable, including content that constitutes child pornography, relates to bestiality, or depicts non-consensual sex acts. So, most pornography should be okay.

  Obscene is always problematic, as it’s measured against a “community standard”. What’s ok in San Francisco may not be in Mobile.

  "otherwise objectionable" is a catch-all.

Spideroak has gotten pretty lazy when it comes to it's interface etc. A number of people I work with have no switched to Tresorit, which has much more features. https://tresorit.com https://tresorit.com

  Wut? They only recently released a new UI. But nice job shoe-horning your friend's website into the convo.

    Tresorit has been around a while, and was the nominated service to migrate to once Wuala shut down. I used SpiderOak for a while and though it started off with promise, it just isn't up to scratch compared to other services. Plus its mobile application is horrendous.
