I've long been heavily embedded in the Microsoft ecosystem, and a big part of that has been having my personal (and work) data held by OneDrive. Last month I finally took the plunge and moved 700GB of personal data over to infomaniak's kDrive, and so far everything has been great. #cloudstorage

Created a Mega account a few hours ago and set it up on several devices to see how it's going.
I have not had a single file uploaded when I received an email stating that I had breached the T&Cs and that my account was terminated.
That's it, just like that. Did not state what I was supposedly doing wrong.

I appealed and was told "You have been banned from opening a new MEGA account due to a previous breach of MEGA's Terms of Service https://mega.io/terms including clause 20.8."

Well, I have to admit that my brain sometimes has gaps, but I am pretty sure that this was my first Mega account, and I am pretty certain that I had not breached and Terms and Conditions.

Well, guess good that I did not throw 30 years of data at it to find out that my data could be going in a fraction of a second.

My data on my hard disk looks way safer right now.

Looks like cloud storage and privacy and all that gist is just talk.
If you want to be in control of your data, you need to have physical access to it.

Otherwise, ANY cloud storage is just someone else's computer.

Thanks for the reminder, Mega.

I reinstalled my Seafile instance for the 999th time, and this time I have added a USB drive logo for it. It seems familiar to me. In the past, I loved using physical USB drives. Now, this will be a familiar, relatable, and nostalgic way to keep my files.

Okay folks I'm so confused

We use Microsoft Azure Blob Containers to store files. Our applications interact with these through a REST API.

I'm looking for a FAST, RELIABLE EU based alternative to Azure Blob Storage that is equally easy to integrate through a REST API

Storage may be as small as a few 100MB or as large as 10TB or more.
