Warnings about public and permanent data

dchoi27 opened this issue · comments

we should leave these warnings in our deployed w3consoles. These are on the NFT.Storage and web3.storage web apps and docs, and still apply here.

⚠️Public Data 🌎: All data uploaded to w3up is available to anyone who requests it using the correct CID. Do not store any private or sensitive information in an unencrypted form using w3up.

⚠️Permanent Data ♾️: Removing files from w3up will remove them from the file listing for your account, but that doesn’t prevent nodes on the decentralized storage network from retaining copies of the data indefinitely. Do not use w3up for data that may need to be permanently deleted in the future.
