ORC – Onion Routed Cloud

In plain words

ORC is a cloud storage service that uses onion routing technology to provide privacy-focused file storage and sharing. Launched in 2017, it's designed for users who prioritize data privacy and anonymous access. The service appeals to individuals seeking encrypted cloud solutions with anonymity features. ORC distinguishes itself through its use of onion routing protocols, which obscure user identity and location during data transfers.
