Maybe we should add paste services too? I think it's a good idea to have paste services listed, as some people want to share code or simply plain text files with some privacy (and without pastebin captchas).

For example, ghostbin seems like a good candidate.

It's open source, supports expiration and encryption - perfect for privacy.
Supports code highlighting, having an account for managing pastes - like pastebin, gist.github.com, ....

Also

Ghostbin user accounts exist solely for keeping track of your own pastes.
No personally-identifying information is retained as part of your user account—even when you use Email. Promise.

Good idea. Are you familiar with Ghostbin alternatives so we can add more services? http://alternativeto.net/software/ghostbin/?license=opensource

Hastebin is open source too, but doesn't use https. It's really just an alternative to pastebin.

I would recommend zerobin, as it's widely used on I2P, but the repo says that you should use PrivateBin.

So lets add Ghostbin, PrivateBin and 0bin.net

@privacytoolsIO Why 0bin.net?

@privacytoolsIO It's client-side. Edit: Ah, I didn't look too much into it, the "A client side encrypted PasteBin" and Your previous pastes will be saved in your browser using localStorage. were enough for me to think that it's client-side only, as in it uses localstorage to store your pastes and there is no server interaction whatsoever, so I kept looking for alternatives.

Looks nice.

I like the proposed websites and as previous mentioned: Hastebin should not be included.

Just found out that hastebin supports https: https://hastebin.com/

Edit: Added under "Worth mentioning"

Should we remove ProtectedText.com? They never released the server source code according to this prism break discussion: prism-break/prism-break#1078

Interesting. hastebin does support HTTPS, but simply typing "hastebin.com" into the URL bar redirects you to the http version. HTTPS Everywhere doesn't help.

A http to https redirect should be the defacto standard.
Any pastebin service that provides encryption and is not open source does not seem like a good choice to me.

Gostbin, 0bin, PrivateBin are all open source and support HTTPS, I think those should suffice?
