This keeps the real-time sync element of DropBox, and avoids needing to reupload all of the encrypted files whenever one changes (although it does prevent incremental updates on individual files).&lt;p&gt;As an added bonus, these files are now encrypted on my machine as well.</text><parent_chain><item><author>mark_l_watson</author><text>I use DropBox and Google Drive a lot, but I have scripts to encrypt data into ZIP files for anything that needs to be protected. It really is not much of a hassle.&lt;p&gt;I have a SpiderOak account, but don&amp;#x27;t use it as often.&lt;p&gt;Speaking of protecting data: I am surprised at how many companies seem to keep their software in private repositories on github and bitbucket. That seems like a security hole, if software if the core of your business.</text></item></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Edward Snowden’s Privacy Tips: “Get Rid of Dropbox,” Avoid Facebook and Google</title><url>http://techcrunch.com/2014/10/11/edward-snowden-new-yorker-festival/</url></story>
