Work from Tails Developers, main git repository, currently devel branch. Upstream commits: commit 6e7ad41ca9664246856fe9553c202f09a1d1066b Remove superfluous AppArmor rule. The pattern `[^.]*` matches a subset of `[^.]**`, so we only need to keep the latter. commit b3a827d8e3c3fee78ec18450dfaf38a3d4eaf270 Make onionshare-gui able to access folders beneath $HOME. Without this change e.g. ~/Documents is inaccessible. To be honest, this does not makes sense to me, as my interpretation of the old patterns clearly should allow subfolders and files therein. commit db2b3a3f73aa01a54c9b7cb5ab83da1d083b7169 WIP: AppArmor profile improvements. |

OnionShare
OnionShare lets you securely and anonymously share files of any size. It works by starting a web server, making it accessible as a Tor onion service, and generating an unguessable URL to access and download the files. It doesn't require setting up a server on the internet somewhere or using a third party filesharing service. You host the file on your own computer and use a Tor onion service to make it temporarily accessible over the internet. The other user just needs to use Tor Browser to download the file from you.
Features include:
- A user-friendly drag-and-drop graphical user interface that works in Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux
- Ability to share multiple files and folders at once
- Support for multiple people downloading files at once
- Automatically copies the unguessable URL to your clipboard
- Shows you the progress of file transfers
- When file is done transferring, automatically closes OnionShare to reduce the attack surface
- Localized into several languages, and supports international unicode filenames
If you're interested in exactly what OnionShare does and does not protect against, read the Security Design Document.
