Just when the dust regarding Mega launch of cloud storage facilities break downs and hacking had settled, Mega is experiencing a new kind of trouble.
Third party clones like mega-search.me have sprung up to take advantage of the Mega's huge storage capacity directly linking the file to the Mega's download page. This clone looks like a search site but gives you latest files which are available for download on the home with a huge window for search. The site is also available in different languages with a option to add your own links to the site.
The Mega's Blog states that
But contrary to news reports regarding blocking of mega-search.me, the site mega-search.me is still alive and kicking. When I visited the home page of the site and clicked a download, I was given a Captcha Code. After filling the code, I was straight away taken to the Mega's site hosting that file with option of Download/Import. When I accepted the TOS of Mega, the file started downloading without any glitch.
There appears to a discrete link between the two sites contrary to what the Mega's Blog says.
