 \section{How is combox different from Combo-Box?}\label{1-sec-cb-diff}
 
 Combo-Box by Wesley Vollmar\cite{vollmar-combo-box} was the first
 implementation of the idea of storing encrypted shards of a file on
 storage provided different file storage providers and depending on the
-file storage provider's client to sync shards to their respective
