Mega Search Engine
Es gibt jetzt eine Suchmaschine für Kimbles Megadings, die Suche basiert auf Links zum Filelocker, die im Netz gepostet werden:
The search engine doesn’t crawl Mega content — which is not possible because of Mega’s architecture. Instead, it relies on Mega users voluntarily providing links to files hosted on Mega’s service. Then downloaders can click and pull the content into their own Mega stash, or download it to their hard drives.
And the downloads are fast — way faster than a typical BitTorrent download.
Combined with Mega, the mega-search.me search engine — which is hosted from an anonymous domain — makes for a full blown piracy site, closer to what Megaupload was before it was brought down. Dotcom’s lawyer, Ira Rothken, said “no” when asked if his client had anything to do with the search engine.
Kim Dotcom’s Mega Gets Third-Party Search Engine
[update] Anscheinend wurden die Links der Suchmaschine von Mega runtergenommen: Dotcom’s Mega Removes Legal Files Citing Bogus DMCA Requests „Mega-search.me, one of the larger Mega indexes, became a repository of dead links overnight. The site in question allows the public to post links to files shared on Mega. It currently lists nearly 8,000 links, but apart from the most recent submissions these are “no longer available” on Mega.“
GEMA vs Kimble FTW!
Ich hab’ Kimbles Megalaunch hier ja weitgehend ignoriert, ich brauch’ diesen Deppen und seinen Budenzauber hier nicht wirklich, aber wenn sich Kimble mit der GEMA anlegt, gewinnen alle. Den Artikel auf Torrentfreak kann man weitgehend ignorieren, die Meldung kann man in drei Sätze zusammenfassen:
“Incredible: The GEMA in Germany took down our #Mega launch press conference video from Youtube for copyright claims,” Dotcom announced this morning. […] “Dear GEMA, all songs in the #Mega press conference are my content. And the artist who performed LIVE gave us permission. WTF?” he said. […] “I filed a counter-claim with Youtube and the video is back online. GEMA can expect mail from our legal team. Copyright madness,” Dotcom concludes.

Kimbles Me.ga hacked and busted
Wer hier eine Weile mitliest, dürfte ahnen, dass diese Meldung hier nicht grade Mitleid bei mir auslöst: Der afrikanische Staat Gabun (zu dem die Top-Level-Domain .ga gehört) hat angekündigt, Kim „Kimble“ Schmitz’ Domain Me.ga abzuschalten. Während ich mit dieser Aktion Bauchschmerzen habe (u.a. wegen der Copyright-Erklärung), aber hiermit kann ich prima leben: Eine neue (?) Hackertruppe namens „Omega“ hat angeblich Kontrolle über die Domain und will sie an Universal verkaufen. Popcorn!
For the last few hours the Me.Ga domain has been directing, via France, to a group calling themselves Omega. In an initial Tweet from an account created just four hours ago, Omega quote the words of German philosopher Max Stirner from his piece Art and Religion. “Art is the beginning, the Alpha of religion, but it is also its end, its Omega,” they write.
Omega are also operating from a Gabon domain – Ome.ga – and according to comments obtained by TorrentFreak, they appear to have little respect for Dotcom. “We’re pure in a diogenist way, we’re the true pirates, the true anarchists,” Omega told us. “Kim Dotcom is only taking advantage of us all, he is a megalomaniac with lawyers here to take advantage of us all, the nobodies, the artists he wants to profit from.”
Omega then go on to compare Dotcom to his old music industry adversary from the 2011 Mega Song takedown debacle. “Kim Dotcom is not better nor worse than Universal. He himself is an industry, only here to pollute,” Omega add.
