DWPaste
๐งพ DWPaste โ Simple & Secure Paste Service
The DarkWorld Paste Service (DWPaste) provides a quick, secure, and privacy-focused way to share text, logs, and code snippets online. Powered by PrivateBin, DWPaste ensures that all data is end-to-end encrypted โ meaning the server has zero knowledge of what users share.
Itโs ideal for developers, IRC users, and system administrators who need a reliable way to share snippets without sacrificing privacy.

๐ Technology Behind DWPaste
DWPaste is powered by PrivateBin, an open-source, zero-knowledge pastebin. PrivateBin is a refactored and enhanced fork of the original ZeroBin project by Sรฉbastien Sauvage.
Current version: 2.0.1
All encryption and decryption happen entirely in your browser using **256-bit AES (Galois Counter Mode)**. This ensures that even the DWPaste server cannot read or recover your data โ full client-side confidentiality.
โ๏ธ Key Features
- ๐ง Zero-Knowledge Encryption โ Data is encrypted/decrypted in your browser only.
- ๐ Expiring Pastes โ Set paste lifetime (e.g., 10 mins, 1 hour, 1 day, 1 week).
- ๐ Optional Passwords โ Protect your paste with an additional password.
- ๐ฌ Comment Support โ Optionally allow comments on shared pastes.
- ๐๏ธ Burn After Reading โ Create one-time pastes that delete after being viewed.
- ๐ Syntax Highlighting โ Ideal for sharing programming code or IRC logs.
- ๐ซ No User Tracking โ No cookies, ads, analytics, or server-side logs.
๐งฐ Use Cases
- Sharing IRC logs privately between users or staff.
- Posting configuration files or error logs for troubleshooting.
- Sharing snippets of source code securely.
- Temporary message sharing without leaving traces.
๐ง How It Works
- You write or paste your text/code in the DWPaste editor.
- Before upload, itโs encrypted locally in your browser.
- The server stores only the encrypted data.
- The paste URL includes a decryption key as a hash fragment (after the #),
which never gets sent to the server.
- When someone opens your paste link, their browser decrypts it locally.
This design guarantees plausible deniability for server operators โ they cannot access or verify paste contents.

๐ก๏ธ Security Notice
Since encryption happens client-side, losing the paste URL or password means the data cannot be recovered. For maximum privacy, avoid sharing sensitive credentials or personal data through untrusted links.
