I don't know here Mozilla got their inspiration, but Send looks pretty similar to our E2E encrypted file sharing app Whisply: https://whisp.ly

PS: Whisply even has more features and a detailed description how its encryption works: https://whisp.ly/static/whisplyTechnicalOverview_20151201.pd...

There's many such tools available, RiseUp runs one called Up1. See https://share.riseup.net/

It's quite nice, has integrated image and video viewers as well as a pastebin all end-to-end encrypted.

Up1 looks nice, but is internally using SJCL which is slow and does not support bigger files ("This is not a problem with sub-10MB images"). Send - and Whisply - are built on the new WebCrypto APIs which are faster and allow bigger files, up to 1 GB in both cases.
