You should keep your FBICIA top secret nuclearanonymous lizard squad MLG Valve files someplace else :hurr:

Do dick pics count as Top Secret Classified files?

Don't think so since it's browser side encrypted?..

"if they're able to decrypt them" - I'm more than sure they'd be able to crack them.

If they did and people found out, it would cause significant controversy.

If they get the server files, yes.
Otherwise, no.

yes

>possibly to the files (if they're able to decrypt them)

nope nigger only you have the decryption codes

EDIT:
this shit is old really. mega really is the best for file hosting, and this is a small rough patch in their business. It'll blow over and no one will get their shit taken.

Still doesn't hurt to be safe with backups, as people should be doing.

well of course. thats true for any file you store off-site.

I read the article, but I still don't understand why MEGA always has to go down. It's always been such a great service. Other than DropBox it's the best imo for hosting large files.
