OnionShare: An Open-Source Tool to Share Files Securely Over Tor NetworkCategory: Ubuntu, github
Last updated August 24, 2020 By Ankush Das1 CommentBrief: OnionShare is a free and open-source tool that utilizes the Tor network to share files securely and anonymously.
Also, you do have to rely on a centralized service to share your files and if the service decides to shut down like Firefox Send — you can’t really depend on it to safely share files all the time. All things considered, OnionShare is an amazing open-source tool that lets you share files using the Tor Onion service.
It lets you securely share files directly from your computer to the receiver without revealing your identity in the process.
If you want to generate a URL that lets someone upload files directly to your computer (be careful with whom you share it), you can just click on the Receive Files tab after you launch OnionShare.
