Share files securely and anonymously

How do you plan to address offensive or illegal content?
How would they if they can’t see it

Good point. I should’ve read the overview more carefully.

That being the case, my next question: Is this intended to be a CSAM sharing platform, or is it just naively a CSAM sharing platform?

Absolutely not. DeadDrop is built with privacy and security in mind, strictly for legitimate, ethical file sharing. It’s designed to empower users to share sensitive but legal information safely, not for any illegal activity.

I do not support or tolerate any use of the platform for sharing harmful or illegal content like CSAM. If such misuse is detected or reported, the file will be permanently deleted and the IP address will be blocked.

So naively then.
Do you have a suggestion on how to combat this while not snooping on a users files? Or are you just enjoying the soapbox?

They’re basically just poo-pooing the ideas of privacy and security, no more than “the government and corporations need access to everything you do because someone somewhere is doing bad things.”

It’s the same idea as “encryption bad because terrorists,” and “gun company bad because murders,” some people blame the people doing the bad thing, and some people blame the tool used or who created it.

No, there isn’t a solution.

You can’t ethically provide anonymous no-knowledge hosting.

This project just looks like it was tailor made for CSAM.
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.
