Have they become worse along with other companies? Have a friend who insists I use it for shared files.

Who are they backed by? Have they had a third-party audit?

I used to use SpiderOak from way back when they had a free tier, but their product is on life support. Currently, login is broken, so I can't even get my data out.

They have not had an audit yet but they are planning on it when they finish implementing their new service or something like that. That will be their first audit I believe.
