the current ecosystem of E2EE cloud storage is largely broken.
Several major end-to-end encrypted cloud storage services contain cryptographic flaws that could lead to loss of confidentiality, file tampering, file injection and more, researchers from ETH Zurich said in a paper published this month.

@ecksmc what are the files for? I need to know to see if I really need them, thanks again!!
@Jorro the files are our own files
For example that link I shared will download a pdf file that I had gotten from the source of that report via url
http://brokencloudstorage.info
So, after I read it I uploaded it for others to download - kinda skipping out the "middle-man" so to speak 😆
users can use the service for uploading various files - the service is a file sharing service individuals will upload whatever files they have and want to share - files aren't associated with CoSo - that helpful?
@Jorro go to
https://share.counter.social/
Once file is uploaded you'll get a unique URL to copy - you can also set limits for downloads either a time limit or by number of downloads allowed
You need to be pro to upload files, and logged in to CoSo via browser, but non-pro users or non-CoSo can download via the link - very handy for sharing files with people not on CoSo 👍
