#2Wow, that's sickly cheap!
Seems to be owned and run by OVH France.
But without encryption and private keys, i'd rather rent a server and use Duplicati.

#3I can't seem to find their privacy policy and ToS document is in French. I think I'll pass.
In fact, the only mention of privacy I found is "respect for privacy" in data security.

Encryption is harder to break than any privacy policy.

#5I started using it a year ago. I'm happy with it.
It's lacking a polished linux client (cli atm), but they're working on it.
On a Sdsl line my upload rate (pc hubic) is 45kb/s, download is 120kb/s. Not mind blowing but it's enough for me, running in the background.
For casual sync and backup, I totaly recommend.

#6They seem to have clients for all the major operating systems. Desktop and mobile:
https://hubic.com/en/downloads
Linux (BETA), OSX, Windows, Android, iOS, Windows Phone 8, Blackberry

#7Jesus that's cheap. Anyone know how good their differential syncing is, or what they are using (librsync?) Are they using inotify or is it a regular tree walk?

Well, you can always use LUKS, Truecrypt, EncFS or something similar. I'm more worried about data loss. How redundant is their storage?

Don't see any mention about encryption on the page.
Or are you suggesting that it can be done manually by user?

It is unfortunate that they ask you to "confirm having read and fully understood the hubiC General Terms and Conditions (sic)" in English, but then present the terms and conditions in French. Absolutely nothing against the French language, but there's a clear disconnect there.
Hey ho, it's not like I read them anyway!
