I haven't heard of SpiderOak before, but from their site, it sounds like you create the equivalent of a private key on each device you use, so that your data is encrypted on the machine itself and never visible/readable by the SpiderOak servers (roughly). Is this correct?
How easy do you find SpiderOak to use otherwise?

At least they are way more secure than DropBox. Another one: https://secure.cloudsafe.com/ https://secure.cloudsafe.com/
- moe 15y agoI gave SpiderOak a shot but had to give up quickly because their OSX client was an unmitigated disaster. It may be possible to ignore the horrible UI once it's set up, but I couldn't ignore that it randomly decided to stop syncing individual files or entire folders. On the second day I even set it up from scratch again, as I figured I might have done something wrong the first time. But on day 3 my laptop and desktop were desynced again, so I went back to unison...
