Safe file sharing with OnionShare

Conclusion

If you are concerned about privacy, I hope you will try out the sophisticated OnionShare. The combination of OnionShare's simplicity and multi-function approach is unquestionably impressive. For those who would rather work at the command line than in a GUI, an alternative command-line version (onionshare-cli) is available via the pip Python package manager.
