Its also worth noting that the service skips end-to-end encryption "to improve speed and compatibility across browsers", … according to MEGA, files stay encrypted while stored and are only decrypted temporarily in server memory … this model may not meet the needs of users who require strict zero-access encryption.

Oof

Also only free until next year

Worst honeypot ever.

It looks like the download will be limited to 100 downloads after January 1s but no file limit https://transfer.it/compare.

Encryption doesn't slow anything down anymore, CPUs have dedicated instructions for it now and it's a non-issue.
