Data Hoarder

We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time (tm) ). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.

I want a cloud storage that does not monitor my info. Is there such a thing? Whether it is adult stuff or financial documents I want it kept on cloud.

What do you all think about MEGA.IO? Supposedly that’s client side encrypted at least against common hackers. I also don’t want my financial data hacked by next year’s script hax0rs, but if I make a 2MB change to a file within a 100GB Veracrypt file I’d like to not upload the entire 100GB every time. Is Mega trustworthy?

Mega is trustworthy. You can see the client code on git, and you can check the code in the browser if you like. It's encrypted in the browser then sent to the server encrypted and without sending the password.

You can verify it yourself, but if they were lying then some security researcher would have already made their career by finding and publicising the lie.
