6/3/2023 0 Comments Media fire vs icedrive![]() ![]() If not enough bandwidth is available the download is going to be treated like a free account download – Meaning you will have to look at those ads again. In case you’re an owner of a Pro account, you receive 10 TB of bandwidth. If you upgrade to Pro, you can download more files and folders at a time. You can download only one file at a time as a Basic user. If you want long-term storage, you will have to upgrade to the Pro plan. That, of course, won’t be done without a warning – You will receive an email if your files get in trouble. Not only that, if your files are not downloaded for a longer period they will be deleted. That means that you will have to sign in once per year to keep your account. The free version of MediaFire includes short-term storage. The size of the files you upload also increases to 20 GB. However, you will be seeing a lot of ads on download and sharing pages.ġ TB of space with no ads and captcha codes to bother you. Though it’s also important to note that they wall off pretty much most of the features behind the Pro plan. The price for the Pro plan is very cheap when compared to other cloud services. However, I won’t discuss that in this review. There’s also a business plan with up to 100 TB of storage. MediaFire offers two plans that you can take. This enables easy retrieval of files in various scenarios such as malware infection. This is exactly what I've been looking for! It's open-source (only front-end, but they explain why backend is not open-source in their GitHub), super secure, minimalist, well-thought-out, their FAQ is well presented and answers to many good questions, it's more affordable than Tresorit, and the CEO ( u/johnozbay) is even VERY active within the Reddit community and answers to very specific technical questions and you can see that he's made very good decisions business-wise and technical-wise and that he knows his shit on a side note, the sad part is, as he said it himself, there's not a centralized place where all his answers are somehow aggregated, so sometimes he answers to the same questions 2-3 times which can be time consuming for both him and people looking for answers, but I digress.Īll in all, Tresorit for me is a "yes", but Cryptee is a "HELL YEAH!" it meets all my needs.The rewind feature allows you to go back in time and inspect your cloud storage as it was in that moment. They even have a nice website with recommended softwares: Īnd that's where I found Cryptee. So I kept digging and found a cool subreddit: /r/PrivacyGuides I want to give everyone free, unlimited and encrypted cloud storage with the help of donations from the community to keep things going.Īlso, it seems Mega made some questionnable decisions regarding their encryption more on this here. But my non-compete clause is running out at the end of the year and I will create a Mega competitor that is completely open source and non-profit, similar to the Wikipedia model. I don't think your data is safe on Mega anymore. As a result of this and a number of other confidential issues I don't trust Mega anymore. ![]() In addition Hollywood has seized all the Megashares in the family trust that was setup for my children. Which means the NZ government is in control. Recently his shares have been seized by the NZ government. ![]() He used a number of straw-men and businesses to accumulate more and more Mega shares. The company has suffered from a hostile takeover by a Chinese investor who is wanted in China for fraud. Neither in a managing nor in a shareholder capacity. ![]() Mega is sadly not an option anymore since Dotcom has no relation to it anymore:ĭotcom: I'm not involved in Mega anymore. I have the free plans of all and all have there good and bad but I want to see what others think. Treasure I have the most free storage with 290gb and it seems to be working great but should I truly be concerned about the fact its located in Singapore if indeed its zero knowledge encryption and not even them or any government entity can gain access? So many different perspectives on all these topics and questions so I would really like to get other peoples perspective on them. Can anyone in as short a response as possible (don't care for the long winded responses that tend to lose site of the topics posts) give your two cents input on these 4 services going head to head and which you think its the one to go with and why? Price wise I would say Fileon, track record and longevity its surely Mega, what about service performance, bang for your buck and overall privacy? I know IceDrive you have to have a paid plan to get zero knowledge encryption wheras IceDrive and FileOn you do not. ![]()
