Help me create a File Sharing site
File Sharing is one of the most used ways we use the Internet, but it is harder then you think.
We are used to using sites like dropbox and google drive to upload images and videos and share them around the web. But so much content is monitored on their that it is very much an invasion of privacy and very risky in general to upload there. (Also no direct links)
Thats why sites like pomf have appeared, free anonymous file sharing sites with direct access to the file from anywhere.
Here is a list if you want to check these sites out: https://sites.google.com/site/pomfclones/
The problem with these pomf clones are that they are very much speculation, since they are run by mostly one person only. Also, a big problem is the financial side of things. If you pay 30$ per month for a server that gives you nothing back many hosts shut down after a while because of a lack of income.
My Idea would be to create a pomf clone with direct access to files and complete anonymity and pay it through SteemIt and this community.
Why me? I am an experienced web developer and can create a scaling site in under a day. Also, I have access to very cheap servers, so we can keep the project running for as long as possible.
Everything would be viewable:
- How many files we host
- How many views we get
- How much the servers / domain costs
- DMCA reports

So if you are willing to spare a little upvote it could mean a new way of sharing files online
Updates to the development progress will be posted on my blog.
