Re:Quick and Dirty Map Sharing on Tuesday December 19, 2023 @02:23PM (#38700226)
I created this tool to create quick, individualized maps to share or collaborate on. I've found it useful for picking restaurants to meet friends at, mapping locations to fly my rc plane, or sharing good hiking trails. Would love some feedback!

Which can be clearly viewed by the community.

That is the encrypted packet representing your message. Once you enter the password, it displays the plain text message.

Great feedback.

Good catch! I'll work on a solution for that.

Thanks for the feedback! I'll set something up like that.

This project addresses a different problem. One where you want to have multiple people reading a message at anytime in the future without the need for end to end communication in real time.

That is known and outside the scope of the project. So, the idea would be to post a message that one or more people who know the predetermined password could read in a central location.

Most of the issues discussed in this post are addressed in my Blog (http://deadropus.blogspot.com/) with more on the way.

It is a secure way to post messages. Anyone can see the posting (which is encrypted) but only someone with the password can actually read the plain text message. The password should be transmitted outside the scope of the site.

What type of advantage does this give you from just looking at amazon.com?
