Filesharing

Send large file via the internet securely and for free

Edward Kiledjian

I wrote about the original test version of the free Mozilla Firefox Send service in July 2018.

Mozilla Firefox Send is a free service open to any user, accessible with any browser, that allows you to securely send a large (up to 2.5GB) file to another internet user. The process is very simple, you upload a file, they provide a unique link that you share with the intended recipient.

The file can be expired after one to one hundred downloads or 1 to 7 days.

You can also protect the file with a download password

There are other services but most charge for add on features like download password protection or expiry configuration. Firefox Send is completely free and comes from the fine folks over at Mozilla that we trust.

Kim DotCom, the famous founder of MegaUpload.com had been promising a rebirth of his file sharing service and the day has finally come. His new creation is called MEGA. In its current form, it has a simple drag and drop file sharing interface (easy to use) and provides 50GB of FREE online cloud storage.
Mr DotCom has promised many more features such as Google Docs style online file editing, instant messaging, smartphone clients and much more. He is offering paid storage upgrades:
Right now, I haven't seen a killer feature that would drive the masses to use Mega but I am sure Kim has some interesting plans to encourage us to try his new creation
