Mega business model looks much more similar to Dropbox, rather than Megaupload. Declaring war on Mega resellers doesnt make much sense, turning rogue filelockers into legit services, that sell could space instead of ease of access to content, supposed to be aim of this whole kill-filelockers compain.
Making it "I want to ruin their business no matter what" doesnt look serious, and will not yield positive results in long term. My bet, new Mega will not loose PP payment option.

The new Mega hides behind this thinly veiled appearance of a legitimate cloud hosting service, the fact is though that it's designed to facilitate sharing and following from that unlawful or copyright infringing distribution of content.

We have already detected a significant amount of illegal and copyright infringing material being shared by the new Mega.

We haven't and wont go after legitimate services like Dropbox - however from it's inception the new Mega was never intended to be a legitimate cloud storage service as it has all the fundamental qualities of an infringing file locker service, the only thing missing at this stage is an affiliate program.

yeah. filelockers are in the air, it demanded technology of nowadays internet.
it should develop as a legal business, so not only filelockers, but also content owners and legit webmasters win. we just need the rules which make sense for all parties

Past behavior is the best predictor of future behavior. Kim Dotcom launched this service because it was timely in order to use his fame, had he done it at a later time he wouldn't garner enough publicity to make it successful.
He's just obscuring the facts enough to make it not get him taken down (immediately anyway).
Despite the fact AK will show google transparency reports in the coming weeks of mega vs dropbox, people will still not accept it and get it, that will never change.
That's the way it is in any business, I remember using robots in a welding job and other workers were saying how other workers should take the place of the robots. You could explain to them the rationale of the robots and how they were the answer to dealing with cheap labor from mexico and other countries, yet they would continue to think and act in denial.

There are sites already sharing links to hundreds of copyright infringing titles on Mega.

In fact, virtually all the files being shared that have been picked up by Google seem to be infringing. Not a good start for a supposedly legitimate service.

Kim is trying to portray himself as an internet visionary (kind of like Fabian) and a freedom fighter or pioneer when in fact he's a crook.

Mega spectacle at launch of Kim Dotcom's new file-sharing site

The internet entrepeneur Kim Dotcom boasted on Sunday that his new file-sharing service, Mega, was the fastest-growing startup in internet history.

In a bravado-filled launch at his estate north of Auckland, the German-born entrepreneur ramped up his counterattack on US prosecutors who argue that the site's predecessor, Megaupload, was at the heart of a "mega conspiracy", a "worldwide criminal organisation" enabling the exchange of copyright material.

"I've never seen anything like this," Dotcom said at an event that was equal parts press conference, polemic and buffoonery. "I've done a bit of PR and got a bit of attention, that's certainly helped. But I never expected 250,000 user registrations in the first two hours ? I think it's unheard of. I don't know of any other startup that has had this kind of early success."

The site had more than a million visits in the first 14 hours, he said, with more than half a million registering for the service, which offers 50GB of free cloud-based data storage.

The launch was held at Dotcom's semi-rural home a year to the day after it was raided by New Zealand police in what was widely regarded as a bizarrely gung-ho operation at the behest of the FBI.

As if the timing and rhetoric were not enough, the import of the new enterprise was hammered home in an at times high-camp performance featuring a mock invasion of the estate, with gun-waving, balaclava-clad commandos descending the inner walls while a helicopter with "FBI" painted on the sides flew overhead.

Earlier a pair of comperes introduced Dotcom on stage as "a multimillionaire maniac, heavyweight champion, three-time Academy Award winner and qualified veterinarian".

US authorities are seeking the extradition of Dotcom and several of his associates to face charges of conspiracy to commit copyright infringement, money laundering and racketeering. Backed by Hollywood producers, they allege that Megaupload knowingly and willingly profited from the provision of a conduit for the exchange of pirated copyright materials. The US case has suffered a series of setbacks in New Zealand's courts.

The Motion Picture Association of America expressed scepticism about Mega. "We are still reviewing how this new project will operate, but we do know that Kim Dotcom has built his career and his fortune on stealing creative works," it said.

Dotcom says advanced encryption built into the new site is in part motivated by his growing awareness of the importance of privacy issues. In an interview with the Guardian before the Mega launch, he positioned himself as a leader in the movement for "internet freedom", and said his own experience of being illegally spied on ? which resulted in a public apology from New Zealand's prime minister ? had informed his thinking.

On Sunday night Dotcom said Megaupload had been unfairly targeted, and asserted that half of all internet traffic was pirated material. "They are trying to blame us for an internet phenomenon ? You can ask any ISP that connects users to the internet, how much piracy traffic do you think you have on your network, and anyone who will tell you less than 50% is a liar. On the internet, piracy is so common that any internet company has to deal with the same issues," he said.

"They can't blame me for the actions of third parties. Megaupload was a dual-use technology. You can use it for good things, and you can use it for bad things. If someone sends something illegal in an envelope through your postal service, you don't shut down the post office. If someone speeds with the car he just bought, you don't go to the car manufacturer and say, hey, we're shutting you down."

how would you know this unless you uploaded the content yourself? it is encrypted so don't tell me that you have some jedi knight trick of being able to break their incryption. I know you will give your standard bullshit reply of " we have our methods and wont disclose them" but in this case it is easy to understand you either upload the content or you don't really know and are lying.

The service allows you to hotlink your content. Do you think people simply signed up to have a remote hard drive on hand? Wouldn't be practical to have all of my content located halfway around the world for safe keeping. Considering the precarious state and reputation Kim Dotcom is in, doesn't sound like a reliable spot either.

It's quite simple.

Piracy forum has posts with DVD covers and title information and beneath all that is a mega.co.nz link.

Piracy blog publishes images and screenshots from videos and beneath that is an offer to download using a mega.co.nz link.

Haaaaaaaaahhaaa AK shutting Mega down. Some good shit you are smoking. Maybe you haven't noticed but all he managed to do so far is remove Paypal from a few low traffic lockers nobody has heard of. And they usually have a new account up the next day.
He can't do shit about Mega.

Yeah nobody ever heard of Netload, Extabit, Luckyshare, Lumfile. Crocko, MediaFire. All low traffic file lockers that just happen to be or have been in the Alexa 100.

You're such a retard Franck.

Yeah but you don't care about the ILLEGAL one, you care only about the copyright infringing one. The real target are not the cyberlockers directly involved in the large scale distribution of CP like depfile and asfile, but the ones your are being paid to go after.
You are just a cashwhore being paid by somebody in order to take down cyberlockers and redirect traffic from them to tubes, this also explains the 50K dollars Fabian did "donate" you. Less cyberlockers means more traffic for tubes. Oh and I forgot your bullshit copycontrol stuff in order to represent people. Come on AK, you are getting pathetic. Your only luck is that there are still enough morons believing you.

We have taken down illegal and copyright infringing file lockers. Lumfile had the biggest problem with illegal content of all the sites and lost billing and web hosting so needed to start again.

If you have evidence of this you need to take it to the police, they are the only agency qualified to deal with such matters.

You are wrong on both counts. If a file locker goes down it's traffic doesn't get redirected anywhere as the site is down, any traffic going to the site is basically /dev/null

You're somewhat hysterical however what you're also missing is that less cyberlockers sharing copyright infringing content means more people are forced to pay for what they are currently stealing.

However you've clearly shown your issue with this whole campaign, you don't want less cyberlockers. You're against this campaign because it's obviously affecting you in some way shape or form.

You've made just a few posts on GFY and they are all to attack this effort, so 10 out of 10 for transparency.

I wanted to quote this so everyone can see how clueless you are (as usual) after he makes his next announcement.

I am the webmaster and custodian of records for 5 of the largest gay adult sites on the Net, I've been in the industry for almost 14 years, and I am on the front lines every day sending DMCA notices to file lockers to have our content taken down. I have SKIN (and cock) IN THE GAME! And I can tell you beyond the shadow of a doubt that AK's efforts ARE making a difference. Causing upload monkeys to swing from file locker to file locker and venting their frustration and fury on the boards they post on until many of them just quit in utter exasperation. I've never posted in this thread before but just wanted AK to know you have lots of fans who appreciate the work you do!

Thanks for the kind comments.

Your experience matches that of many people who we speak to who do not post on GFY. Slowly but surely we are dismantling years of unchecked piracy and a file locker eco system that supports it.

This should get very interesting. :)

Torrentfreak article in link.

Anti piracy group moves to cut off finances of dotcoms Mega

Let's make a wager on how many asinine comments that article obtains... I wouldn't be surprised if it gets 500+

its interesting how much AK's useless, non affecting work is bothering people

AK is famous! yay!

interesting that Intra was founded by the new CEO of Mega, he's potentially putting his registrar at risk for this new service? That's a bit dumb.

all you do is run your cock sucker and sell shitty links

:2 cents:

Bothers a whole shit load of people apparently. They won't stop posting about it. Pretty impressive for doing worthless work.

Today we achieved what hollywood, the MPAA, the RIAA and every other anti piracy organisation in the world couldn't.

Hotfile no longer has Paypal.

http://stopfilelockers.com/wp-conten...ilepremium.jpg

Read about our findings on Hotfile here:

http://stopfilelockers.com/hotfile-t...ted-by-paypal/

Many of our critics questioned why we weren't doing anything about Hotfile. The fact is we were always looking at Hotfile, however as has been the case with all of our targets, we do not divulge details of operational matters.

We are looking at many many sites, as our resources are limited we shift our priorities and try to keep a manageable workload.

Losing Paypal is a gigantic blow to any site. It is by far the most widely accepted and trusted payment system on the net other than credit cards. The reason why Kim Dotcom chose Paypal for Mega resellers was because of it's widespread acceptance.

There will be more terminations, more pressure placed on pirates and our aim is to ensure that commercial piracy has no economic safe haven.

i'll be the first one to say thx for a great news!
that's solid!

I find it crazy how hollywood nor MPAA nor RIAA doesn't know yet for ak considering they benefit mostly from this while we as adult industry not much lol

yeah, he should be definitely hired by huge corporations and get appropriate budget
he will get an offer one day

And there it is... :pimp

Bravo!!!!!

It won't please the haters, but this is huge.

We are going about all this in a methodical manner, credit card processing will be dealt with in due course. We have all the time in the world so we'll work through every issue in a methodical manner and ensure we do this job properly.

:thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup

Congrats. It's about time the mpaa and riaa with their huge legal budget that achieved nothing at all start sucking your cock,frankly.

Bump this thread up for a guy who is making a difference

Bump for sales :GFYBand

Great work once again AK, fuck the haters... they'll never derail this thread no matter how much pressure their mom puts on them to get off the computer and go to bed.

Keep up the great work AK!

+1 :thumbsup

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh :thumbsup

Most, on visa/mc option, will ask you to give email. I assume AK can put his email and get the instructions like anyone else, so why they don't put instructions or links directly, rather than ask email? Is that just to spam email later?

Nice, congrats!

those are some more
