Facebook Build Server Near North Pole

If realized, the entire user's personal data can be viewed government without a hitch.

VIVAnews - freezing area is the main advantages of Luleå, a city in northern Sweden, where a target up to build their newest data center. However, despite the polar wind can help save energy for cooling the server, the policy of the applicable law will heat up the situation.

An Internet monitoring law called FRA law, in force in Sweden since 2008, enabling the country's government to sabotage any Internet traffic that passes Swedish borders without the need for a letter from the court.








Excerpted from The Register, October 31, 2011, the Swedish people do not like this rule. Google even mention the legislation was incompatible with democratic climate of the Western world. And if so open up their servers there, the rules will disturb the citizens of Europe because the Swedish government could look up the contents of each user.

"It's very bad news for a few hundred million Facebook users from Europe, who will find their Facebook account information stored on the server," said Anna Troberg, leader of the Pirate Party, Sweden. "This means that whatever they send to and from Facebook will pass through the filter's FRA," he said.

If no one gets in the way, this server will be operational by 2013. He will keep most of the European Facebook user data ranging from pictures of birthday parties, update status, user a private message to lover, and so on. And these data can be viewed by the Swedish authorities without the need to legally consent.

Monitoring legislation, which also includes the communication to the phone, got a very strong criticism from various parties, including one from Google.

Peter Fleischer, Google's Global Privacy Counsel in 2007 and had vowed that the biggest search engine sites that will not build a server in there because the country is "the most berated the state of privacy" in all of Europe. To serve European users, Google's own servers and then build them in Belgium and Finland.

So, how do Facebook reactions related to this issue? They seem to overlook it.

"Access by government officials against personal data is governed by the laws of any countries, including the United States and Sweden," said a spokesman for Facebook. "We are committed to follow the rules that apply in countries where we operate and set up a special team to deal with problems related laws and regulations."

VIVAnews - Some people believe, the end will come in 2012. That said, a planet named Nibiru will hit Earth and destroy all the creatures in it.

Because no planet discovered 'naughty' that threaten Earth - that could play a role as Nibiru - the conspiracy theorists to replace it with a comet. Elenin his name that will traverse the Earth in October 2011. Elenin, for them, is Nibiru.

However, the good news on the Earth's population. Prediction would not be proven. Therefore, the U.S. space agency (NASA) said, instead collided with Earth, comet Elenin has died. In fact, the remaining pieces will not go back in time 12,000 years.

NASA noted, a few months later, Elenin swing through the inner solar system. This comet is within closest approach to Earth on October 16, 2011, but he was no longer intact, the only form of 'crumbs'. Elenin bad luck is thought to occur in September when he was very close to the Sun.

"As the comet passed near the sun, only two percent of the time that he traveled: ruptured Elenin," Don Yeomans of the near-Earth object observations program, NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, as the site loaded science, LiveScience, October 27, 2011.


"The fate of the remnants of broken Elenin as well as other denominations. Will form such as clouds, the route to the outside of the inner solar system. We will see the remains Elenin around the Earth, at least until the 12th millennium."

Yeomans said Elenin no longer even a comet, but the 'ex-comet'. "One that can be quickly forgotten."

NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Twitter also wrote, "Comet Elenin dead."

On 10 September 2011, Elenin floated within 75 million kilometers from the Sun, the solar heat makes it crack into pieces. In October, tersbeut fraction is 35.4 million kilometers from Earth - a distance of closest approach to human habitation. Only a fraction Elenin cloud as seen from the telescope.

"Comets are made of ice, rock dust, and organic compounds. Diameter can reach several miles. But, they are fragile and not solid, more like a dust ball," said Yeomans. There was no hope remains of the comet back together. Once broken, it was destroyed forever.

Elenin comet was discovered by astronomers, Leonid Elenin of Lyubertsy, Russia. Another name C/2010 X1, while still intact he diameter of 2 kilometers.

Yeomans added that NASA has repeatedly denied that Elenin is a sign of doom. However, given the information that is regarded as a NASA effort to hide the facts about Elenin. "I do not guess, how can a small comet became an internet sensation," said Yeomans. "

Once again, doomsday predictions proved wrong. (umi)
