Description
FileShot.io is a privacy-first file sharing service that could be a good addition to the "File Sharing" section as a privacy-respecting alternative to WeTransfer, Google Drive, etc.
Privacy properties:
- AES-256-GCM encryption runs in-browser before upload — the host never sees file plaintext
- Decryption key lives only in the URL fragment (never transmitted to server)
- No account required — no personal data collected
- MIT open source / self-hostable: https://github.com/FileShot/FileShotZKE
Link: https://fileshot.io
