Filestrum is having difficulties and not recommended

It does say he must be able to review them and if they are password protected files he can't do that.


The only reason to password protect them is to hide the content. If you need to hide the content he can not verify if they violate their ToS and therefore he can and has chosen to in some cases not pay on those files.

That is what is said and the intent of the ToS you agreed to by using his service.

Actually it says this

Filestrum will not routinely screen, monitor, review or revise User Content uploaded, stored, or shared using the Service. However, Filestrum may review any such content, and Filestrum reserves the right to refuse to accept, store, or permit the sharing of any User Content, to remove any User Content from the Service, and to prevent the uploading, storage, or sharing of any User Content.

That's not the same as saying he MUST be able to review them.
If he thinks something isn't on the up and up,all he has to do is request the passwords.

Just because someone has files on the servers doesn't mean they want everyone on the planet to have access to all of them.Say if someone posts the links on a private forum or something.
There are places people can go to search sites that aren't supposed to be searchable.Passwords prevent people doing that from being able to open the file.



I have a question for filestrum though.Are you currently limiting how often account holders are able to upload files ?
