Pastebin 3.1 adds private pastes feature

Pastebin recently rolled out a new update on their platform.

The latest version is Pastebin 3.1 and they are finally offering private pastes to the users.

Private pastes would require the user to create an account on the service.

These pastes would be restricted to the creator of the account.

With this, Pastebin now has three types of pastes:

Public
Unlisted
Private

The company said in a note:

Public pastes are indicated by having a ‘globe’ icon next to them. Unlisted pastes have an ‘open lock’ icon and private pastes have a ‘closed lock’ icon next to them.
