I run 0807, a file host I host myself.
You drop a file, you get a short link, and you choose when it disappears.
I am posting it here because the whole thing is built around privacy, and because I would rather lay out the real threat model than call it "secure" and let you find the gaps later.
The privacy side:
The honest part, which this community will and should ask about:
it is not end to end encrypted. The server can read what is stored, on purpose.
I want to be able to remove illegal uploads when they get reported, child sexual abuse material above all. A server that cannot see its own contents cannot act on those reports, and I am not willing to run one that cannot.
So I gave up that form of secrecy in exchange for being able to take that content down.
What that means for you in practice the password is casual access control, not protection from me as the operator or from anyone who breaks into the server.
If you need real confidentiality, encrypt the file on your own machine before uploading and share the key separately.
Treat 0807 as a way to move files around with self destructing links and no account, not as a vault for secrets you cannot afford to expose.
It is open source, and I host the code on my own server instead of GitHub, so there is no third party in that loop either.
You can read every line check the no logging claim yourself suggest a change, or open an issue all without an account:
Questions and criticism welcome. If you think the encryption tradeoff is the wrong call, I will read the argument
I see, is there a reason why you don’t just link to the GitHub repository (or better yet, use Codeberg)? Seems a bit strange to have the logo there when it goes to a different domain. This project looks like it could be useful.
Edit: I found the contribute pages, I’m assuming you did it this way for those that wish to stay anonymous (e.g: Tor visitors).
Hi, yes, everything is hosted on my own servers. And I'm not a big fan for several reasons, including this one:
Copilot was trained on publicly available code without consent and in violation of open-source licenses https://githubcopilotlitigation.com/
The source code is available here: src.0807.st, viewable without an account or registration. And you can push commits anonymously.

Privacy has become a very important issue in modern society, with companies and governments constantly abusing their power, more and more people are waking up to the importance of digital privacy.
In this community everyone is welcome to post links and discuss topics related to privacy.
much thanks to @gary_host_laptop for the logo design :)

Is this a repost? I’m sure I saw a post like this already a few days ago.
