Anonfiles is shutting down

After trying endlessly for two years to run a file sharing site with user anonymity we have been tired of handling the extreme volumes of people abusing it and the headaches it has created for us. Maybe it is hard to understand but after tens of million uploads and many petabytes later all work of handling abuse was automated through all available channels to be fast as possible. We have auto banned contents of hundreds of thousands files. Banned file names and also banned specific usage patterns connected to abusive material to the point where we did not care if we accidental delete thousands of false positive in this process. Even after all this the high volume of abuse will not stop. This is not the kind of work we imagine when acquiring it and recently our proxy provider shut us down.

This can not continue.

I really liked it I used it if I need to send some 100 mb files to friends god I will miss that site it was great

Doesn’t that require both users to be online at the same time?

Also what’s with that name how is anyone supposed to remember how to spell rymdport…

Thank you for the suggestions :D

Yes! I use wormhole all the time. Even for transferring files across computers on my network.
