Hi ,
Lately, I’ve been working on a small project called deaddrop.space. I’m posting it here because I thought it might be handy to those who care about privacy and control over their data.
It’s a secure, anonymous file-sharing platform built to prioritize privacy, control, and simplicity. Unlike typical services that ask you to sign up, verify emails, or accept endless terms, DeadDrop lets you upload and share files — no accounts, no tracking, no nonsense.
Here’s how it works:
- You upload a file, set a name, password, expiry date, and max number of downloads.
- To share it, just provide the recipient with the name and password (or a direct link).
- Files are encrypted in the browser using AES-256 before they ever leave your device.
- No raw files or passwords are sent to the server — it’s zero-knowledge encryption.
That means even I, the creator, can’t decrypt or access the files.
BTW, it is open source : https://github.com/Rayid-Ashraf/deaddrop
Would love to hear what you all think — feedback and suggestions are welcome!
That’s definitely not the intention. It’s built for people who care about privacy, not for anything illegal.
There is significant overlap between those two groups.
Sure, but there are also a lot of people doing good things who are persecuted for them, do you think it should be impossible to do any kind of activism just because other people commit crimes?
