Kim Dotcom seems to have kept his promise to release a competitor to Skype. The MegaChat, a new program end-to-end encrypted audio and video chats, which can be run from your browser.
The service was released today and is still in beta format. It is free for all registered users who can test it from the new domain that Dotcom acquired: Mega.nz. Dotcom told Twitter that MegaChat users have made over half a million encrypted video calls from the very first hour of their release.
Audio and video slopes are already in place and, as Dotcom said, text conversations and video conferencing will be soon near you.
To try it MegaChat, you will need to subscribe to Mega. Right after you can click on icon discussion on the left line tools. So you can start an audio or video call with any of your contacts using the same service.
