I am near the end of my free space of my C: drive and chrome said that I should free some space and suggested to show my how much data each site keeps on my machine. It turns out that a site called mega.nz has 3.3GB on my machine.

chrome shows it when visiting: chrome://settings/content/siteDetails?site=https%3A%2F%2Fmega.nz%2F

I would like to note that I am not familiar with this site and am not using it. following this discovery I did visit their site and saw that they offer cloud space and I was wandering if somehow they are using my HD to provide storage to other people....

does anybody know if I should remove their data? or how can I see exactly whats in this data??? Is this an indication of some sort of security breach?

This is the cache storage occupied by this website on the chrome browser.

The amount of 3.3 GB is excessive, but can be released by clicking the button "Clear data" right next to this number.

This will delete the entire cache and cookies data for this website, so that you will need to login again.
