What are the files encrypted with? How does the recipient get the key to decrypt them?

2 gigs over a local network: your Dropbox stats show it slower than Drive. Why isn't Dropbox's lan sync working here?

Sorry, I replied above. Here is my response:

"The files are encrypted with RSA using the recipient's public key. In other words, Infinit never has access to the transferred data.

We compare the file transfer feature (not synchronization) which is, with Dropbox, the right click -> get a link. The LAN sync only applies to the synchronized folders which is another use case."
