The cloud storage according to the creator of Megaupload: 50GB of free storage for all files and connections with encryption and full responsibility of the users on shared material.
Exactly one year from the incident involving its top service, Kim Schmitz "Dotcom" returns to be talked about with the announced comeback Megaupload, this time with a new name, new services, and interesting news about the privacy and respect for copyright
The new fleet of services is part of the Mega portal, accessible at this address.
What's new set from Kim to prevent a new seizure by U.S. authorities?
First of all, a brand new fleet of ultra-fast servers, located in unknown locations and nations "condescending" to the share (more or less legal) files and data.
Second, a greater respect for the privacy of the user, both in the sharing that storage itself, the image below shows, the new settings available for registered users (free or not)
We can upload any file in encrypted form, not visible from the outside (Mega ensures that even the managers of the server know the content of the file, because the encoder is "invisible"), only accessible by external users through a RSA 2048-bit key, a high level of encryption.
You can also set the number of connections for uploads and downloads, to significantly improve the speed of loading and downloading files.
Each user and each file will have a maximum of high speed band exploitable month, exceeded this threshold will not be able to download more than 45Kb / s.
Reports about violations of copyright will be treated "with kid gloves" the accuser must provide valid documentation and be in possession of a cipher key to show the sharing of copyrighted material.
Each user will be directly responsible for what they charge or shares of Mega: no employee or agent of Mega knows the contents of the file can access it or even mandated giudiziaro: files are encrypted and unreadable to those who have the key.
In case of a positive violation, the whole responsibility falls on you, no action can be taken to Mega (at least with this current legislation in different countries).
Mega tries to "monitor" the file streams with higher traffic (even if encrypted, therefore invisible), slowing the speed of the download file "suspicious" account from free, for the sole purpose of ensuring a fair distribution of bandwidth to the users with paid accounts: no files can be watched or intercepted with the current level of encryption, monitoring will only serve to not clog the servers.
To counter the success of the other sites devoted to cloud storage (first of all Dropbox and Skydrive) Mega offer plenty of space with the free account (around 50 GB) and low prices for paid subscriptions:
€ 10 per month for 500 GB and 1 TB of bandwidth exploited, 20 € per month for 2 TB of space and 4 TB of bandwidth exploited, € 30 a month for 4 TB of space and 8 TB of usable bandwidth.
Very competitive prices with guaranteed top speed of up to 400 Megabits per second for each user (of course, this speed is also affected by server load and other factors of the network).
So the new Mega is simply a cloud storage service like any other? There is no real news in addition to the prices?
Mega is just the beginning, as often mentions his creator on the web site
On site there are (many projects are not confirmed, without any source):
Smartphone apps for multi-platform for the sharing of mobile services, MegaBox, a platform for sharing music "famous" for free and legal; MegaMovie, cinema free Mega: famous movies provided for free and legal to 1080p , MegaCall, service rival Skype calls and free video calls via P2P with high encryption (Random Access internode), certified as "inviolable and inintercettabile", which also offers free calls to landlines; MegaChat, a service that to unify more than 100 different IM services into a single product; MegaMail, new e-mail service with email "self-destructive" and account "masked"; Megaporn, the new frontier of the hot Internet: film known (and failed) to access free "no surprises" (viruses, malware or other traps typical of these sites).
Just to mention some of the new services expected or vociferati.
At the moment only MegaMovie has been confirmed and is coming in the next few days
All services will be interconnected and accessible via browser or via dedicated apps.
Some of these are really able to smash the competition and establish themselves as revolutionaries for years there is no real opponent of Skype or Gmail, or a viable competitor to the (expensive) digital distribution platforms for audiovisual content protected by copyright.
The cards on the table for a real digital revolution are there: you just hope it lasts, and that this amount of services (some revolutionaries) do not step on the feet of a corporation willing to do anything to you to maintain the current "status quo" .
