PrivateBin was\nrefactored to allow easier and cleaner extensions and has many additional\nfeatures. It is, however, still fully compatible to the original ZeroBin 0.19\ndata storage scheme. Therefore, such installations can be upgraded to PrivateBin\nwithout losing any data.\n\n## What PrivateBin provides\n\n+ As a server administrator you don't have to worry if your users post content\n  that is considered illegal in your country. You have plausible deniability of\n  any of the pastes content. If requested or enforced, you can delete any paste\n  from your system.\n\n+ Pastebin-like system to store text documents, code samples, etc.\n\n+ Encryption of data sent to server.\n\n+ Possibility to set a password which is required to read the paste. It further\n  protects a paste and prevents people stumbling upon your paste's link\n  from being able to read it without the password.\n\n## What it doesn't provide\n\n- As a user you have to trust the server administrator not to inject any\n  malicious code. For security, a PrivateBin installation *has to be used over*\n  *HTTPS*! Otherwise you would also have to trust your internet provider, and\n  any jurisdiction the traffic passes through. Additionally the instance should\n  be secured by\n  [HSTS](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_Strict_Transport_Security). It can\n  use traditional certificate authorities and/or use a\n  [DNSSEC](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain_Name_System_Security_Extensions)\n  protected\n  [DANE](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNS-based_Authentication_of_Named_Entities)\n  record.\n\n- The \"key\" used to encrypt the paste is part of the URL. If you publicly post\n  the URL of a paste that is not password-protected, anyone can read it.\n  Use a password if you want your paste to remain private. In that case, make\n  sure to use a strong password and share it privately and end-to-end-encrypted.\n\n- A server admin can be forced to hand over access logs to the authorities.\n  PrivateBin encrypts your text and the discussion contents, but who accessed a\n  paste (first) might still be disclosed via access logs.\n\n- In case of a server breach your data is secure as it is only stored encrypted\n  on the server. However, the server could be abused or the server admin could\n  be legally forced into sending malicious code to their users, which logs\n  the decryption key and sends it to a server when a user accesses a paste.\n  Therefore, do not access any PrivateBin instance if you think it has been\n  compromised. As long as no user accesses this instance with a previously\n  generated URL, the content can't be decrypted.\n\n## Options\n\nSome features are optional and can be enabled or disabled in the [configuration\nfile](https://github.com/PrivateBin/PrivateBin/wiki/Configuration):\n\n* Password protection\n\n* Discussions, anonymous or with nicknames and IP based identicons or vizhashes\n\n* Expiration times, including a \"forever\" and \"burn after reading\" option\n\n* Markdown format support for HTML formatted pastes, including preview function\n\n* Syntax highlighting for source code using prettify.js, including 4 prettify\n  themes\n\n* File upload support, image, media and PDF preview (disabled by default, size\n  limit adjustable)\n\n* Templates: By default there are bootstrap CSS, darkstrap and \"classic ZeroBin\"\n  to choose from and it is easy to adapt these to your own websites layout or\n  create your own.\n\n* Translation system and automatic browser language detection (if enabled in\n  browser)\n\n* Language selection (disabled by default, as it uses a session cookie)\n\n* QR code for paste URLs, to easily transfer them over to mobile devices\n\n## Further resources\n\n* [FAQ](https://github.com/PrivateBin/PrivateBin/wiki/FAQ)\n\n* [Installation guide](https://github.com/PrivateBin/PrivateBin/blob/master/doc/Installation.md#installation)\n\n* [Configuration guide](https://github.com/PrivateBin/PrivateBin/wiki/Configuration)\n\n* [Templates](https://github.com/PrivateBin/PrivateBin/wiki/Templates)\n\n* [Translation guide](https://github.com/PrivateBin/PrivateBin/wiki/Translation)\n\n* [Developer guide](https://github.com/PrivateBin/PrivateBin/wiki/Development)\n\nRun into any issues?
