A word on cryptography
Basically this isn't dedupe. If two people upload the same file, Mega will store two copies.

But is it possible to share a file
and
a key, so that a receiver of a share wouldn't need to re-encrypt the file and could instead stash a copy as is?
I bet they support this. If I were Mega, I'd be doing this yesterday.

Sure, they do that. But I don't consider symlinking to be dedupe either.
