I’m referring to MegaData as being the content which they are likely taking too - what are they going to store at the new repository in Utah?

I know.

The term is "metadata," data about data.

There is no term "megadata," other than it being a corruption of the term metadata.

When a politician says "Megadata," they are trying to repeat a talking point without understanding what they are saying.

The only possible use of "megadata" would be to speak of kilobytes, megabytes, terabytes of data, that is, the amount of storage being used.

Unless someone coined a new term that I haven't heard about yet.
