Well, if it works for you and you're aware about the risks (both to have the data exposed and inaccessible/lost at some point) why not. Tell us more, how much you're using and how often you put stuff there, how you manage it?

We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time (tm) ). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.

I've been using Terabox for 6 months now and it's still working. I uploaded many ISO files and lots of movies/tv series.
I don't suggest you to upload sensitive files and to accept the risk that they can suddenly remove all your data without advising you. They haven't done yet, but they could do that (also Google did that with unlimited storage).
If you want to upload videos or other stuff that isn't very important for you (like videos that you can re-download anytime) probably it is fine, but if you want to store important data I don't recommend it.
Terabox only allows 20 files to be saved on the free plan. Each file can be a max of 4 GB, which means that you can only store at most ~80 gigs. That is the main gotcha.
why not use google 15gb or mega free 20gb? mega have a promo where when you first sign up, do a couple of invites, you can get up to 50gb. secure and trusted
yes but isnt it limited? also answering that bc it offers much more space (i still use google drive sometimes tho)
