I should have been clearer here 😅
I mean after the user has unlocked by password for the first time.

:) yes after password is entered then we can show the linksharing page as usual with download enabled.

Same as the previous comment,
I mean after the user has unlocked by password for the first time.
This is more a technical decision whether we want to block previews and downloads entirely whether the user has unlocked the link share

I assume the rate limiter would consider both the accessKeyID and IP address at the same time, because if we rate-limit only by accessKeyID, we might unintentionally block access for the n+1 user. Anyway, I don’t think we would even need this rate limiter if we implement captcha, right?
