Do you know what you'll do when people start sharing illegal content?
Not worry about it? It's not like he can see it anyways, it's encrypted on the client.
I used Firefox Send for deliverables on a commission. It was so easy . I could send updated versions and set a date for the download to expire to make sure both sides were on the current version. That was worth money. They could have charged for it.
Yes. Yes, we should have charged money for it. Sigh.
I see you worked on Send, and am surprised that you'd comment on here in such fashion about the decision-making to not charge for Send.

But the popup on transfer.sh suggests emailing hello@dutchcoders.io.
And in nearly the same breath they announce a net nanny service to help people maintain their YouTube recommendations bubbles. I like Firefox, but I worry about the direction the Mozilla Foundation are taking. At least it's Free Software.

Ok, fine, they scan for bombs. So people shift to mailing sealed anthrax envelopes (which has happened). A public service is also going to be used by criminals, yet we do not expect the service to be shut down.
> So people shift to mailing sealed anthrax envelopes (which has happened). Which they also scan for? The USPS does try to keep the mail safe, and generally does a good job. Mozilla cannot make the same guarantees about Send so they shut it down.
Well, and with encryption the files going through mozilla are always properly sealed and they can only rely on external indicators such as reports or IP blacklists. So they're doing no worse than USPS.

Why not create a Firefox+ subscription service (for like $10 per month) and then make Send, Notes, VPN, and more exclusive to that service? Some people over here are dying to start paying for Firefox. (Mozilla donations go to the much smaller non-profit part of Mozilla and are unrelated to Firefox.)
