Hey there, Product Hunt! I'm happy to introduce you to Data Dead Drop. 📁 I quit my day job at the end of last year, and finally have the time to do what I've been wanting to do for a long time: Just Build Fun Things. Data Dead Drop is a nifty file-sharing tool that I made to scratch a personal itch of mine. It's simple, secure, and, best of all, completely free. No strings attached. Here's what makes it stand out a bit: 1️⃣ Anonymity: No sign-ups, no cookies – your privacy is top-notch. 2️⃣ Automation: Designed for the command line junkies; cURL, HTTPie or whatever else. Take your pick. 3️⃣ Security: Diceware algorithm for secure links. And your uploads are fully encrypted. 4️⃣ Self-Destruction: Files vanish after a predefined number of accesses or expire after a short while. Oh, and everything is open source. Feel free to poke around the code on GitHub. Please give it a spin and let me know what you think! 😊 🙌 Cheers, Hans

Congratulations on your launch! Data Dead Drop's self-destructing files are such a unique twist.
Congrats Team Data Dead Drop on the successful launch on Producthunt! The idea of secure, efficient file sharing is a need of the hour. Just one suggestion - how about incorporating a feature that would give users a heads-up notification before their data self-destructs? This would give them an additional layer of control and confidence in using the service. Great going!

Fantastic job, @hschne! Your tool for secure file sharing is truly impressive. How did you come up with the idea, and what's your favorite feature?
It's great that you've created this @hschne! Is it similar to we transfer? My suggestion: over explain it. My view is that it focuses on devs but it could also be super useful for regular people. They tend to need further info. Anyway, this will certainly help keep data safe and secure - kudos to you!

Data sharing is a constant conundrum. Thanks for creating htis wonderful tool to simplify the process.
This looks like a incredible apparatus for secure record sharing! I'm inquisitive, does Information Dead Drop bolster huge record exchanges? Moreover, is there an choice to set an termination time for the records, or do they all self-destruct after being gotten to? Finally, are there any plans to create a graphical client interface in expansion to the command line client? Keep up the great work!
That's a very cool and straightforward apparatus! I attempted it, and it worked truly well, but the drag & drop did not work - I had to press and transfer. Will you include the plausibility of uploading a envelope containing a few records? Will you include a UI to appear an outline of the transferred records, permitting the client to see at slightest the record title and measure some time recently downloading it? And do you arrange to permit bigger records?
