I’ve been using skiff. com for sometime, as they claim to be a fully privacy preserving app suite like GApps or proton. One thing I like is they provide 10GB storage even for free accounts, where proton eventhough much bigger provides only 500MB.

But that got me wondering… Are they trustworthy as proton? Is there a chanve they end up being a honeypot? Does data actually gets encrypted before sending to the servers in a trustworthy way?

    A software using CC-BY-NC-4 is not a good option, as it was made for media. If skiff markets itself as open source, it should respect the guidelines of opensource( it’s open source(https://opensource.org/osd/), you can read the 6th rule. It says the software should not be limited for commercial use.)

      I agree, I’m just answering the why question. Free software licenses don’t have non-commercial clauses and they want an NC clause.
