## Security
CryptPad is *private* not *anonymous*. Privacy protects your data, anonymity protects you.
As such, it is possible for a collaborator on the pad to include some silly/ugly/nasty things
in a CryptPad such as an image which reveals your IP address when your browser automatically
loads it or a script which plays Rick Asleys's greatest hits. It is acceptable for anyone
who does not have the key to be able to change anything in the pad or add anything, even the
server.
The server does have a certain power, it can send you evil javascript which does the wrong
thing (leaks the key or the data back to the server or to someone else). This is however an
[active attack] which makes it detectable. The NSA really hates doing these because they might
get caught and laughed at and humiliated in front of the whole world (again). If you're making
the NSA mad enough for them to use an active attack against you, Great Success Highfive, now take
the battery out of your computer before it spawns Agent Smith.
Still there are other low-lives in the world so using CryptPad over HTTPS is probably a good idea.
