Vishnu Mohandas wanted to develop an alternative service for storing and sharing photos that is open source and end-to-end encrypted.

The paid service he designed, Ente , is profitable and says it has over 100,000 users, many of whom are already part of the privacy-obsessed crowd.

Ente launched a website and marketing stunt designed to turn Google ’s technology against itself.

Ente , which means “mine” in Mohandas ’ native Malayalam , isn’t without its own downsides.

Since the service is smaller and open source, features like file sharing and search may not be as advanced yet.

Google’s Smith says the feedback is appreciated and that its constantly making improvements.
