Torrent fans can soon add another solid player to their list of favorite file-sharing sites. Poised to soon challenge current leaders The Pirate Bay and KickassTorrents is MegaUpload, which according to founder Kim Dotcom will resume operations as early as January 2017.
However, Dotcom has made clear that the second coming of MegaUpload will not necessarily carry the same popular label but the new name, according to TorrentFreak"will make people happy." It"s clear though that the flamboyant Dotcom is reentering the scene he once dominated but now ruled by the resilient TPB and the now mega popular KAT.
Work is now underway for the MegaUpload re-launch that Dotcom said will be leagues better than the old shuttered site. "I"m excited about the new innovations the site will contain ... I can say that this year I have set things in motion and a new cloud storage site is currently under development," Dotcom told TorrentFreak.
Much of the details for the new MegaUpload remain under wraps but Dotcom confirmed its basic function as a digital locker that users from around the world can freely access. He hinted too that the key feature is a virtually unlimited storage space.
"A new site is in the making ... (with) 100GB of free cloud storage," Dotcom said in a tweet posted July 5.
In the same post, the German national also teased that users can count on solid security protection as the planned site will make use of on-the-fly encryption method, which TorrentFreak said is just the initial layer of security measures that the new MegaUpload is poised to offer.
"Given the German"s attention to security in recent years, it wouldn"t be a surprise if additional features are added before launch," the report said.
The new site will also permit users to sync all their devices with stored date plus the assurance of unlimited data transfer.
The new MegaUpload, Dotcom said, will be the culmination of years of planning and will be backed by his vast knowledge of the file-sharing environment. "It will be my best creation yet," Dotcom declared.
Short of confirming that MegaUpload will rise again using the same name, Dotcom told TorrentFreak that the new rival for TPB and KAT will certainly make people glad. And the new MegaUpload launch date will happen in the month that Dotcom is reminded of the raid that halted the old MegaUpload operations, which is January 2017.
