Send shared seems broken with Blockchain.info. I'm sure piuk will fix it eventually.

Why would you use a wallet that destroys your privacy in the first place (change address reuse) and then sells it back to you for 0.5%? Some web wallets are ethical and offer you free mixing right off the bat.

Well this is a pretty sick bug then! I will open a topic about my case as soon as I'm able to post, I did some testing and 50% of my 8 shared send transactions did not came through, but the money did arrived at someone else! For now piuk owns me more then $600.

Can you tell me about those web wallets, do you use them? No unreliable ones please.

Blockchain.info is safe. If you look at the source code, you can see how your wallet is decrypted client-side, which means there is no way for them to know your password be it encrypted or decrypted. The only e-mail I have gotten from them is the one with the identifier that you receive when you register, no spam at all. The rest of what it says is mostly so that they don't get arrested if the government decides to interfere with bitcoin.

We are not talking about Blockchain's login safety or security, we are talking about a bug which makes coins disappear when using the shared send function on their site. I just saw someone else also having troubles as well in this topic https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=260525.0
No one seems to care?
