This weekend journalists were tripping over themselves to be first in line to breathlessly announce Kim Dotcom's launch of his new cloud storage site. The truncated name Mega, launched almost a year to the day his previous illegal file sharing site Megaupload was shut down, promised to be a different venture.
For one thing, instead of merely exploiting artists and musicians while making tons of cash selling ad space, like Megaupload used to, Mega introduced a tiered pricing. While 50 GB , are free they also offer rates for more space costing €9.99, €19.99 and €29.99 per month. Because why should he pay for all that storage when you can do it, right?
I wonder how many Megaupload users will start paying to use the Mega's service. Ha ha ha ha, no I don't.
Among the geeky bells and whistles included in Mega, (mobile access, IM'ing with other Mega users) there is one major difference between Megaupload and Mega: file encryption. Mega is known as "The Privacy Company." Beyond the obvious rebrand, the question people should be asking is, is this any more legal than Megaupload?
According to the Daily Dot, the answer is no.
While this won't change anything for those who would use the site to encourage broad piracy, people who just want to share pirated material with their friends are unlikely to be caught.

Most likely indeed.
