Show HN: Blindsend, Open-Source End-to-End Encrypted File Transfer (github.com)

I am happy to announce blindsend: an open-source project we started in order to make end-to-end file exchange easy.

https://github.com/blindnet-io/blindsend

We made it for people to whom clients send sensitive data (doctors, layers, financial advisors) who can use it to send a one-time upload link to their clients, and have blidnsend take care of making the transfer end-to-end encrypted. We hope it will be useful to many who have to deal with GDPR compliance.

You can also call blindsend server from any application/software that you have if you wish to enable your users to exchange files without your system/app having any access to the content, and we are also developing blindsend Java library. As such, we hope blinsend will make implementing end-to-end encrypted file exchange easier, and we are excited to make it open source so that everyone could benefit from it.

I would love to hear your feedback, and if you use blindsend please let me know if I can be of any assistance.

Cheers

May I suggest adding "how it works" section in README.md?

do you just transfer files? or do you store them as well?

I recall receiving an unsolicited email about this project a week ago. Did you scrape email addresses from GitHub profiles to try to promote your project, by any chance?

this is a similar solution for transfering files without storing. it requires both sender an receiver to be online at the same time. https://github.com/warner/magic-wormhole
