    Dotcom is now effectively Musk’s hanger-on of a somewhat insane type. He posts a lot of megalomaniac and incoherent right-wing stuff (and I mean incoherent even by right-wing standards), as seen here. He hasn’t had anything to do with MEGA for many years, he’s been in a sort of exile in New Zealand, and frankly he seems as if he’s isolated and mentally deteriorating.

    Back when I was in Jordan, I visited a music store. They had a big screen on the wall with Windows Explorer open with a huge catalog of .mp3s. You could choose anything and they would burn the CD for you. Everything was clean and tidy as you would expect for a shop in a central location. Made me aware of how much legislators work to protect the rights of those few companies that own the rights.

    Very interesting that he points out that a guy is Jewish, does not give good vibes. Ofc most of the things he’s done don’t give me good vibes either.

    Anyway, I can’t remember the last time I’ve used Mega, for anything. None of the cool sites use them, afaik. There’s like a million better sites now, and the best stuff is in Russia, since they barely touch piracy sites. it’s so often in a piracy sites lifecycle for them to start on a normal tld, get banned, move to a weird tld, get banned, then move to a cool foreign countries tld.

      Definitely seems like an antisemitic jab, and yeah he way overestimates how much pirates use and care about Mega in this day and age.

      Why? Mega is so good IMO. No speed limit, no rate limit, no time limit. Rapidshare for example limits the speed I believe to only 200 kbit/s and only allows 2 or 3 file downloads per day. Uploaded is even worse with 50 kbit/s. Fuckingfast is better regarding speed, but I believe they have a time limit, meaning after X days it gets automatically deleted.

      But there are still people who upload their stuff on that platform only. And that stuff is so niche, you can’t find it anywhere else or it simply is the highest quality.

      It would be a dream if people would upload to mega.
