Comment on Finally Bitcasa CEO Explains How The Encryption Works

Comments

So I can encrypt a file, upload it, and if someone else encrypts the exact same file... they can decrypt my uploaded file? I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around this.

I believe that the encryption will encrypt to the same signature everytime. So, if someone else uploads the same encryption file, they just point your file to someone else's same encrypted file.
