Sorry for the /r/titlegore I often import stuff into my mega account when I find I won't be able to download immediately (at work, holidays etc). Has anyone had their account taken down because it was linked to another account holding copyrighted work?

just make 2 accounts - 1 for your personal important stuff, 1 for pirating

Thanks - this is a great idea

I have 7 different accounts full of imported stuff and nothing has been taken down yet.

Great, I'm gonna do the same 👍

The accounts don't get taken down. But if the copyright takedown asks for the file to be deleted from their servers instead of just the share link being taken down, you lose the file from your imported acc too.

I only know of one time when my accounts were taken down for importing copyrighting content. It was in the purge MEGA conducted last year. Other than that, your imported stuff is quite safe if you don't share from them.

I have had content removed from my paid account that I had previously imported. Just the one file so far.

I dunno, shouldn't it just be a case of the stuff you've imported is gone and anything you've put up yourself is still there? I've got a few imports myself so fingers crossed is all you can do I guess.

there was a big account suspension (permenent suspension) that happened to alot of people here some months ago, forget when, it's because they were importing alot of copyrighted stuff from here, i got lucky and escaped it, probably because i personally uploaded 98% of the stuff on my accounts

It's not likely but it's definitely possible. A few months ago mega went on something of a which hunt and send out a ton of takedown notices for imported stuff as well as in general
