The implicit purpose of the site is to protect private data, when the actual function of the site is to take said private data and broadcast it onto the Internet where it is vulnerable for pretty much anybody to read. That is very much misleading. Maybe there’s no explicit promise, but somebody who doesn’t know how the Internet works would find this site and assume that it was a way to protect sensitive data, which is exactly what the review here on makeusof says.

Somewhat off topic, but I never told anyone what to do, I’m just adding some much needed additional information on the service being discussed here, so people can decide for themselves whether or not to use it. Also, a “hypocrite” is someone who preaches one thing and does something contradictory. So even if I was telling anyone what to do, that would make me bossy, not a hypocrite. I’m only telling you this because arguments (and insults) are much more effective if they don’t make you sound like an idiot by using words incorrectly.

You really need to be wary of any online encryption service: the chances that someone will have access to your unencrypted message is very high, and even if its sent securely to the server, who’s to say they aren’t snooping your data?

Finally, most of these services don’t even bother mentioning what encryption scheme is being used: which probably means they’re using one that some half-wit came up with and never bothered exposing to academic inspection to determine whether or not it’s actually strong against attacks.

Shame on encodor.com for misleading users, and shame on makeuseof.com for not bothering to check into this at all.
