    An example how to find weaknesses in encryption. It's kind of interest how Qubit based "computers" can break aes-256 within a minute? Qubit puters are world changing tech, which can be used for good or bad.

    Is Mega a sole exception or is OneDrive, Icedrive, pCloud, etc. also subject to the same exploitation? In other words, is this a case of vulnerability or incompetency (or both) exclusively aimed at Mega?
    And are the other aforementioned cloud storage alternatives impervious to this exploitation? Maybe too many questions... Still...:isay:
