It's this change on mega's side: https://github.com/meganz/webclient/commit/520804af96144530b1c78161d37b870cd4335b5f

About 2000 new lines of obtuse mix of mega.nz UI and crypography code. I have no
idea what mega changed other than that it seems like they added a whole new key
management layer.

I haven't used mega.nz in the last 5 years, so I'm just waiting for someone
to either analyze this and give me a summary of what changed on the API
layer which mega.nz doesn't document, or for patches. :)

kind regards,
	o.
