Nice thing to include end-to-end encryption. I am interested to know what users say about it? Is it a key reason in their decision to choose your solution?

I'll bite. How are DDG and Brave not helping to protect your privacy?
As long as we go and just criticize, or say X should not be trasted, I think we are not helping move things forward on the privacy front. It's a good thing that people make tools. Some are OK, some are not doing the job. Eventually, overall, there'll be some progress. At least, there is a discussion and awareness.

I am happy to announce blindsend: an open-source project we started in order to make end-to-end file exchange easy.
https://github.com/blindnet-io/blindsend
We made it for people to whom clients send sensitive data (doctors, layers, financial advisors) who can use it to send a one-time upload link to their clients, and have blidnsend take care of making the transfer end-to-end encrypted. We hope it will be useful to many who have to deal with GDPR compliance.
You can also call blindsend server from any application/software that you have if you wish to enable your users to exchange files without your system/app having any access to the content, and we are also developing blindsend Java library. As such, we hope blinsend will make implementing end-to-end encrypted file exchange easier, and we are excited to make it open source so that everyone could benefit from it.
I would love to hear your feedback, and if you use blindsend please let me know if I can be of any assistance.
Cheers
you have a typo: lawyers not "layers"

It looks nice. I think it deserves a better title then "yet another" :)

Is there any instance of (a) a SaaS with a legally binding contract with some teeth around user privacy and (b) where that clause was exercised and the user benefited?
The civil route be an alternative to regulatory solutions.
Regulation doesn't make the social change. Software does.
