Description
A plea...
Deanna and I have been running this site since 2008 and lately we're seeing a big increase in
users (and cost) but a decline in percentage of users who donate. Our ad-free and junkware-free
download site only works if everyone chips in to offset the revenue that ads on other sites bring
in. Please donate at the bottom of the page. Every little bit helps. Thank you so much.
Sincerely,
your Older Geeks: Randy and Deanna

OnionShare v2.6.5

👉 Securely and anonymously share files, receive files, host websites and chat over the Tor network.

OnionShare is a free, open-source privacy tool that lets you securely and anonymously share files, receive files, host websites and chat with others using the Tor network. Instead of uploading your data to a third-party file-sharing service, OnionShare runs a Tor onion service directly on your computer and provides a unique .onion address that others can open using Tor Browser.

OnionShare provides separate modes for sending and receiving files, publishing an onion website and creating anonymous chat rooms. The application handles the Tor connection for you and can create temporary or persistent onion services depending on how you want to use it. Because transfers take place through the Tor network, users do not need to expose their public IP addresses to one another.




Features:
• Securely and anonymously shares files through the Tor network
• Receives files directly from other users without relying on a conventional cloud storage provider
• Hosts websites as Tor onion services directly from your computer
• Creates private anonymous chat rooms
• Generates .onion addresses that recipients can open with Tor Browser
• Allows multiple Share, Receive, Website and Chat tabs to be used at the same time
• Supports persistent onion addresses for services you want to reuse
• Provides ephemeral onion services when a permanent address is not needed
• Keeps chat history from being permanently stored by OnionShare
• Assigns chat participants random names, which they can change
• Includes its own Tor connectivity for normal desktop use
• Supports Tor bridges for networks where direct Tor connections are restricted
• Provides a graphical desktop application and command-line interface
• Open-source software released under the GNU GPLv3 license
• Does not require users to create accounts with OnionShare

Ope! Hold on, Speedy.
You gotta read this before you download below:

This website has lived for 18 years solely through donations.
You can download without donating but we use the "Honor System"

make your donation to keep things running.
Your momma would be so proud!

Thank you! -Randy & Deanna (The Older Geeks)
