    Burner Note is a free, ad-free and open source tool for securely sending text based notes that are encrypted and self destruct once read.

  • Update: As far as I can tell, this is the encryption encrypoint[1]. It does seem to be vulnerable to a padding oracle attack, unless the `$request->note` parameter is something much more complicated than it appears to be (i.e., it appears to be the plaintext).

    It's always great to see people experiment with encryption (and burn-after-use schemes are very cool!) but, absent of further information, I think it's actively dangerous to encourage people to use this.

  • drop

    Drop is an end-to-end encrypted and anonymous dead-drop, encrypting directly in the browser. Try it out at https://drop.fev.al (by cfe84)

  • Fun, I made something very similar, but that encrypts E2E and using ECDH (demo: https://drop.fev.al/ and github: https://github.com/cfe84/drop)

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
