MEGA's KimDotCom (Kim Schmitz)

MEGA’s Beaming KimDotCom (Kim Schmitz)

In today’s world, given the revelations from whistle blower Edward Snowden (PRISM, etc.) it is abundantly clear that EVERYTHING is being monitored.  Phones, street cameras, internet, the NSA is bridged across your connection to record the minutae of your life.

Doesn’t seem fair does it?

Well, it isn’t.  The majority of people have lost hope of maintaining privacy on the Internet, but I haven’t.  There is hope.

What can one do?  In a word: ENCRYPT

End-to-End Strong Encryption is the one thing which works, according to Edward Snowden, so my advice to Folks is to exploit the best of breed tools available.
 


KimDotCom’s MEGA Tweet on Snowden’s Recommendations

MEGA uses strong end-to-end encryption for file syncing to a free 50GB cloud encrypted folder, and only ‘you’ have the private key to unlock the data.  No one else, not even MEGA can unlock it.  MEGA have no idea what is stored — it is a ‘blind’ block level stream of bytes being stored in encrypted form.

This ensures:
 

  • Your data will remain locked and private for your eyes only

  • MEGA can assert they have ‘Zero Knowledge’ of what is being stored

MEGA also includes a MEGAsync client application (the red M in the top tray in the screenshot below).  If and when you want to upload to your MEGA account drive, simply drag your file(s) to the MEGA folder.  It’s that simple.

 

Drag-Drop files to your MEGAsync folder to automatically store them on MEGA

Also, share files with other MEGA account holders, all done in the strong encrypted cloud not accessible by any third party, including the NSA.

 


MEGAchat Client now in beta testing

 

Chat, have Video/Audio calls even, using new MEGAchat, all in a secure encrypted session.

MEGA is the future of on-line computing.  MEGA is here today and now.

So, take advantage of these tools.  They are free.

Privacy.  It’s your right.  Own it with MEGA.  – Dietrich
