I stopped using MEGA recently, I think it’s becoming shadier than ever… Who even owns MEGA at this point? I thought it was the government of New Zealand? Also, seems like they introduced ads into their mobile app, which is unacceptable imo
Seems like theyve become less and less shady over the years, actually
How so?
Kim left. He was dodgy as fuck.
Code is audited. Audits actually published publicly. And their contents is great. Read it. Very transparent.
They’ve expanded to include other services. I really like the video conferencing. There’s almost no VC solution that has client side encryption only. Almost all the other VC companies can downgrade calls to not having e2ee.
They’ve had CVEs before. Everyone does. But they responded to them perfectly: accepted responsibility, quickly patched it, and published very transparent explanation of what the attack was and how they fixed it.
If the source code is open and audited, idk what you’re afraid of. The fact that everything can’t bypass e2ee means its perfect for tech illiterate folks.
Didn’t know about the ads. Unacceptable.
