**Communicating the OnionShare address and private key might not be secure.** Communicating the OnionShare address to people is the responsibility of the OnionShare user. If sent insecurely (such as through an email message monitored by an attacker), an eavesdropper can tell that OnionShare is being used. If the eavesdropper loads the address in Tor Browser while the service is still up, they can access it. To avoid this, the address must be communicated securely, via encrypted text message (probably with disappearing messages enabled), encrypted email, or in person. This isn't necessary when using OnionShare for something that isn't secret.
**Bekendmaking van die OnionShare-adres en privaat sleutel is dalk onveilig.** Om die OnionShare-adres aan mense te kommunikeer is die verantwoordelikheid van die OnionShare-gebruiker. Indien dit onveilig verstuur is (soos deur ’n e-posboodskap wat deur ’n aanvaller dopgehou word), kan ’n luistervink vasstel of daardie OnionShare-gebruik word. Indien die luistervink die adres in Tor Blaaier laai terwyl die diens aktief is, kry hulle toegang daartoe. Om dit te vermy moet die adres veilig gekommunikeer word d.m.v. geënkripteerde teksboodskap (waarskynlik met verdwynboodskappe geaktiveer), geënkripteerde e-pos of in persoon. Dit is onnodig wanneer OnionShare vir iets wat nie geheim is nie, gebruik word.
