Before posting this comment, I went and checked the Tarsnap site, including the Security section, the design section and the FAQ and didn't find an answer to this question. My memory, from a past reading of your site, was that you kept keys on your side of the service, so that you could turn them over to Law Enforcement if they showed up. Is this still the case? (because if it is, then you can look at cat.jpg, even if you wouldn't post publicly about it.)
- spicyj 15y agoI believe that this has never been the case with Tarsnap -- the keys are stored only locally. (cperciva can delete your encrypted data but not decrypt it.)
