For reason unsung , the F.B.I.raided a information core and seized several server , causing known online brands , including Pinboard and those in the Curbed web ( like our friends at Eater ) , to go offline .
NY Times ’ Bits blog says that the information substance is owned by DigitalOne , a Swiss company operating in the U.S.
“ The foray was on a hosting installation in the United States used by DigitalOne , a company based in Switzerland . It was not directly clean-cut what the F.B.I. was looking for .
In a note to one of its clients , a DigitalOne employee , Sergej Ostroumow , said : ‘ This job is triggered by the F.B.I. , not our company . In the night F.B.I. has taken 3 enclosure with equipment plugged into them , possibly including your server – we can not assure it . ' ”
DigitalOne say everything the F.B.I. was after revolve around a single client . Yet they took more server racks than postulate ( three enclosures worth , to be precise ) . As a outcome , Pinboard has been left running on a backup waiter , and the Curbed land site are still down . What ’s on those server ? [ NY Times ]
