The James Bond Villain Data Center

Where does WikiLeaks keep its secrets?  In a former military bunker and nuclear shelter under Stockholm's city streets.  Nicknamed the James Bond Villain Data Center (actually the Pionen Data Center) - - the 8,000-server facility, which could theoretically withstand a nuclear impact, is protected by 24-hour video surveillance and a two-foot-thick armored door.  Two German V12 diesel submarine engines are on standby for backup power.
