Question!
Is “BiteBlob Anonymous PublicDrop File Sharing Service” secure? I mean, won't it end up like Anonfiles?

BiteBlob is not a secure platform for hosting sensitive files. For example if you’re selling a database and upload it to BiteBlob without password protecting the ZIP or RAR file the admin of BiteBlob could easily access and exploit the same database you’re selling potentially offering it for free.

So... Have you a hosting service to replace this one ? If I follow your reasoning, all site administrators can access the files.

Mega.nz : End-to-end encryption for file storage and sharing.
Tresorit : Zero-knowledge encryption and strong privacy protections.
Sync.com : Privacy-focused with zero-knowledge encryption.
Proton Drive : Encrypted cloud storage from the makers of ProtonMail.

For hosting sensitive files, biteblob has their PrivateDrop service.  It is a one-to-one share, adds encryption to the file when it is stored, sends the unlock key to the uploader, the uploader shares this with the person they want to download the file, and they can unlock it when downloading.  Once downloaded, the file is removed from the service.  I emailed biteblob about this service and this is my understanding of what they sent back.  They said they received requests for a private sharing service, so they built one for people to use.  And their website uses SSL for upload and download, so you have client to server comms encryption.  And with privatedrop, it sounds like there is end-to-end encryption.

For all the hosting platforms, I would say that most of them have system level access to whatever they need to access files, in most cases.  I don't believe biteblob, or most others have any desire to grab and sell anyone's files.  Never seen any evidence of this.  I guess everyone can ask the same questions about any file sharing platform... including box, google, aws, mega, etc, etc.  Even the ones that you pay monthly to keep your files, do you 100% know your files are not being sold?  Just saying.  Most of these platforms have a ton of files coming in and out and it would take a large human team to analyze anything.  Most of the services from my understand run automated tools to help them identify files they need to block.

As far as the other list:
Mega.nz : End-to-end encryption for file storage and sharing.
Tresorit : Zero-knowledge encryption and strong privacy protections.
Sync.com : Privacy-focused with zero-knowledge encryption.
Proton Drive : Encrypted cloud storage from the makers of ProtonMail. 

I have used all of these services, minus the Tresorit.  I will try that service very soon.  The question, I have, is from a user's perspective... you can upload what you want, and read their "state of the art write-up" to protect content, but is there really anyway for a client (from our position) to prove the files are 100% secure on any service?

What happened to Anonfiles?  I was a huge fan of the service, but never fully understood what happened and why they shutdown.  Thnx
