Description of my issue:

Just curious, do you have any plans to support backups to SpiderOak? Their "zero knowledge" backup security is attractive but their API, while available, is closed source i believe. On the other hand, since nothing is beyond surveillance any more (Hello NSA) I wonder if it is worth the effort!

I have no problems with S3, FWIW. Thanks!

It's already been asked many times so I'll just sum up my answer: they don't give their API to third parties, ergo it's impossible.
