_Julian Assanges' bunker looks like an atypical Bond villian hideout
	_ With his eccentric personal life and air of mystery, the flamboyant WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange seems to be doing his best to impersonate a James Bond villain. How appropriate, then, that he has chosen what looks like an 007 film set as the back-up store for the thousands of confidential emails and documents that have shaken the world.

Interpol is bent on chasing the faces behind the WikiLeaks and they find no place to place their data in the US with Amazon kicking them off its servers! So what have they planned next? They have relocated their servers in France! You know where? Exactly here:

Since Interpol figured a way of using google earth, Wikileaks went underground. Where Google earth and Interpol couldn't find them.

And only James Bond Could.

So their data is all secure and they are taking refuge themselves in a Swedish Nuclear bunker so that you are being provided with the updated site without any problem.

For now, they have http://www.wikileeks.org.uk domain in hand. So you can access the site there. If in a case the domain is suspended, you can still access the site at http://46.59.1.2/. In case there’s a DDOS or something else, there would obviously be a work around! We’ll keep updating this post with the latest working links to access WikiLeaks website! So don’t forget to bookmark this page if you want to visit WikiLeaks every now and then!

Wanna see the bunker they are hiding in? Sure, have a look:

These pictures show the Pionen data centre, 100ft below ground in a former Cold War nuclear bunker, where all the WikiLeaks files are being kept.

Chilly reception: The bunker, drilled into granite under the Vita Berg Park, could withstand a nuclear attack

Nerve centre: Super-servers which act for storage for many companies are also used by WikiLeaks to store its information

 

Plant life: The offices feature lunar-landscape flooring, glass corridors and a 'floating' conference room

The vast cave, drilled into granite under the Vita Berg Park in Stockholm, houses dozens of computer servers used as storage by many companies.

Complete with a 'floating' conference room, suspended glass corridors, lunar landscape flooring, designer furniture, and even, intriguingly, German U-boat engines as back-up generators, all that is missing is the bleached-blond Assange himself, stroking a white cat.

The disused bunker was reopened in 2008 with its futuristic design the brainchild of Swedish architects Albert France-Lanord, who were inspired by Bond sets created by Sir Kenneth Adams.

The brutalist design is softened by plants kept alive by brilliant solar lighting and artificial waterfalls.

 

While on the run from Swedish and American authorities, Assange has had to use this secure base for his files.

WikiLeaks was hosted by internet retailer Amazon but it was kicked off its website following intense pressure from American politicians.

Assange then used a French firm before being expelled from there as well.

As a result, WikiLeaks has set up numerous 'domain names' in dozens of countries, each linked to one that keeps copies of the original files.

Assange has turned to Sweden because the country's laws are some of the best in the world for protecting the work of freedom of speech campaigners.

Under Swedish law, WikiLeaks cannot be prosecuted and neither can the people who pass it information.

 

Wikileaks is funded by a mixture of public donations, help from Assange's wealthy patrons and, so far as anyone can tell, a fair bit by Assange himself.

But the cost of this storage will be very little, because although Assange's team have released several million documents, in data terms this is not a large amount.

Everything WikiLeaks has in its possession could probably be stored on a high-capacity memory stick.

However, putting it into the trust of this set-up - which any self-respecting Bond villain would be proud of - must surely pander to Julian Assange's huge ego.

Rock solid: The entrance to the Pionen high-security computer storage facility

Earlier in August the copyright-flouting Swedish Pirate Party began hosting Wikileaks’ IT operations, and it’s not clear exactly why it’s chosen to move Wikileaks’ servers to the Pionen facility.

 

 

The threat of law enforcement physically seizing or destroying the organization’s equipment, after all, is much less likely than a legal attempt to gain direct access to Wikileaks’ data.

Last year the Swedish government put a crack in the country’s strong free speech protections when it passed a controversial law allowing surveillance of Internet traffic by the FRA, a law enforcement agency.

But Stockholm-based Bahnhof executive Jon Karlung tells me in an interview that the company’s data center is “a kind of metaphor” for Bahnhof’s commitment to resist any sort of intrusion, physical or legal. “We’re proud to have clients like these,” he says. “The Internet should be an open source for freedom of speech, and the role of an ISP is to be a neutral technological tool of access, not an instrument for collecting information from customers.”

Karlung says Bahnhof has not yet complied with Sweden’s new FRA surveillance law. “We have an unbroken chain of fiber-optic cables that cover 2,300 kilometers,” says Karlung. “We’re positive that [government agencies] haven’t installed any equipment yet. That day will come, and when it does we’ll inform all clients that they’re surveilled by the Swedish government.”

Wikileaks has likely spread its servers well beyond any single data center, including other facilities in Sweden and Iceland, and it’s also posted an encrypted file labeled “insurance” on its site, potentially to be used as a threat of further data spillage aimed at preventing attacks on the site or its volunteer staff.

In the coming weeks, Wikileaks has said it will release another 15,000 documents related to the war in Afghanistan. As the controversy around the site mounts, it may need every protection it can find.
