Also he's admitted to snitching on people to law enforcement for his own benefit. I wouldn't trust the man with anything private. Ever.
Good thing we have the Government to protect us. At least someone we can trust with all we do online.
If you should trust him [1], and if you like him are another matter - but clearly there's a business opportunity for someone who can market to the megaupload crowd.

Edit: Changed 'like' to 'motivated' as it describes the situation better (see Zigurd's comment below)
It's a move that makes sense - his business of allowing you to share and download files puts him at odds with authorities. Given this nature of this business his clients would motivated to use secure communications. He will be able to market to the sort of people who need privacy and have used his services before.

I wish he would use his stature to promote existing solutions like Jitsi or Tox. That won't contribute to his bank account though, so it's a non-starter.

That also encompasses almost everyone on Earth.
He was a professional conman (before he made money with mega by actively pushing pirated content) known for making false claims, so be weary about the reliability of his encryption claims.

just like ... Skype?
Skype is getting more and more useless with every iteration. Encryption is gone, file transfer first stopped to recognize direct LAN connection between clients and now some of the files get stored "in the cloud", the design is just atrocious, advertisements annoying (thank gods for workarounds). And yesterday my 5.9 installation stopped working, so I have to put up with that.
Do you have a link to that? The last time I looked at the news, Skype was using SSL to servers so Microsoft could see the data transferred, and while that's not ideal, it's still very different from your implication that everything in the protocol is now transmitted in the clear.
