How would MEGA do this, without crawling the web looking for links + keys? Which is certainly something they'd have no interest in doing.

Naturally, I'm sure that third party "rights enforcement" companies might trawl for these links and look for infringing content and issue a takedown notice to MEGA, but there must be an ongoing arms race between people sharing links+keys and the bots crawling for them.

By doing that.

They receive reports and take links down.
