OnionShare 2 adds anonymous dropboxes, supports new Tor addresses, and is translated into a dozen new languages by Micah Lee.
From the post:
After nearly a year of work from a growing community of developers, designers, and translators, I’m excited that OnionShare 2 is finally ready. You can download it from onionshare.org.
OnionShare is an open source tool for securely and anonymously sending and receiving files using Tor onion services. It works by starting a web server directly on your computer and making it accessible as an unguessable Tor web address that others can load in Tor Browser to download files from you, or upload files to you. It doesn’t require setting up a separate server, using a third party file-sharing service, or even logging into an account.
Unlike services like email, Google Drive, DropBox, WeTransfer, or nearly any other way people typically send files to each other, when you use OnionShare you don’t give any companies access to the files that you’re sharing. So long as you share the unguessable web address in a secure way (like pasting it in an encrypted messaging app), no one but you and the person you’re sharing with can access your files.
Depending on the cyberfails at your organization (How to Block Tor (The Onion Router)), secure leaking may be as easy as installing OnionShare, adding the files you want to leak and transmitting an Onion address to a member of the media.
Well, some members of the media. Western main stream media is extremely risk adverse and will take no steps to assist leakers. That is leaks have to arrive on their doorsteps with no direct effort on their part. I suspect that applies to obtaining files with OnionShare but you would have to ask a reporter.
On the other hand, cleaning staff can read passwords off sticky notes as easily as users and with OnionShare 2 on a USB stick, could be sharing files during their shift. Deleting OnionShare 2 before leaving of course.
OnionShare 2 is a project to support, follow, use and share as widely as possible.
