It really kind of blows my mind that anyone is willing to use these kinds of cloud-storage tools without their own personal layer of encryption in-between. I've used Dropbox with encfs in the past, and didn't bat an eye when their usage terms changed, because although they were storing my data, they do not have my data. Without something like encfs, you're just literally giving other people your personal files--I don't understand that on any level.
- sunchild 15y agoDon't you lose the key features of Dropbox as a service: de-dup, sync, share, etc.? In that case, why not just store your stuff directly in S3 and cut out the middle man?
