 Cloud Storage solutions enable users to store, sync, and access files across devices via remote servers—but with that convenience comes the need for careful scrutiny. Many mainstream providers collect metadata or have access to plaintext content, making them unsuitable for privacy-focused use cases. This section highlights cloud storage services that prioritize end-to-end encryption, user sovereignty over data, and minimal reliance on centralized infrastructure, offering more control and confidentiality than typical consumer platforms.
