File-hosting site Mega has faced intense criticism about the sort of files it has been storing in the cloud, but the sharing of copyrighted content illegally is a problem far more widespread.When searching for content hosted by Mega - via a third-party site not endorsed by Mega itself - in two minutes the BBC found full versions of the films Django Unchained, The Hobbit, Skyfall and The Dark Knight Rises.But as Mega has said from the outset, reported content is taken down. This happened to all four of these examples.The search engine itself - because of a code "developed by Mega to delete all files indexed on Mega-Search" - became unusable.Despite all this attention on Mega and its activities, films under copyright are not difficult to come by elsewhere.
