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!
I mean, how do you expect anyone to enforce that? That’s like looking into every envelope or package sent through mail…
Usually you just keep logs and then it’s up to the police to enforce, obviously not anonymous though.
Yeah, that is the problem, If I started doing this, what is the point of anonymous then.
Look, problems like CSAM can’t be solved just by shutting down the platforms used to distribute it. If one site goes down, they’ll just move to another. Problems like this can only be solved by addressing the root cause. However, on my end, i will do my best to tackle this issue.
