[tahoe-dev] not tahoe-lafs but related: client-side encryption for Dropbox

[Zooko O'Whielacronx]

Folks:

Brian had mentioned being interested in this sort of hack—something
that does strong, client-side encryption and integrates with Dropbox's
synchronization.

I just happened to see a comment on Chris Soghoian's blog:

http://paranoia.dubfire.net/2011/04/how-dropbox-sacrifices-user-privacy-for.html?showComment=1303851895945#c3078575857420634491

These pages have a few more technical details:

By the way, they are wrong that client-side encryption and
deduplication are inherently incompatible. See
http://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/browser/trunk/docs/specifications/file-encoding.rst
and http://tahoe-lafs.org/hacktahoelafs/drew_perttula.html .

I don't see any source code. I assume it is a proprietary product.

Regards,

Zooko
