ELI5: How can Mega.nz get away with hosting copyright material the same way Megaupload.com did but got busted for? Nothing seems to have changed.

Taken from the site:

>All files stored on MEGA are encrypted. All data transfers from and to MEGA are encrypted. And while most cloud storage providers can and do claim the same, MEGA is different – unlike the industry norm where the cloud storage provider holds the decryption key, with MEGA, you control the encryption, you hold the keys, and you decide who you grant or deny access to your files, without requiring any risky software installs. It’s all happening in your web browser!

Basically, they can claim that they have complete lack of knowledge of what they store. Users only upload encrypted data. Anyone attempting to analyse traffic or stop particular content sharing would have to target the user rather than the company.
