Use it for backupsy.
45 bids wow, i wonder how high it will go for.
@serverian you could offer backup space there
Money goes to a good cause
Interesting. Way too expensive of course, but great for bragging!
Do you believe a guy with 0 feedback?
Honestly pretty cool.
Didn't read the full info, but its a blank server right? lol
What do you mean?
Have you read the full description?
The contact number and business email is there.
There is plenty of pictures on there. I am sure it won't be to hard to contact the datacenter to confirm.
He most likely made a new account incase eBay decides to suspend it.
It's one of the larges ISP:s in Sweden who are the seller.

He, as in Bahnhof AB, most likely never had one before this auction.

PR?
Besides, for all you others not knowing about Bahnhof - that's Jon Karlung, Bahnhof VD and chairman of KN Telecom AB, Bahnhof's parent company. It's not just 'some guy'.
Isn't this the same DC where TBP initially started?
Interesting pictures with the post.
Ah. It's legit then. Bid away.
already $9,100
That will be worth much more after the battle for free speech will be won or nobody will need it as the world will end if the battle will be lost.
ROFL @ the dramatic shots of the server held by a mystery man.
why you should buy that server? to use it? or just say "hey is from wikileaks" ??
it worth the 10k+ is going to end the auction?
i dont see any spec of server on auction.
thats my dumb question =D
I think free speech and the quest for the truth behind the wars and surveillance is not something that can be quantified in money. The whole world economy will be worthless if we cannot stop the lies and the world will end in WW3.
How much will be the price of human lives and ecosystem loss to add to that ?
Wikileaks and Asange might have their faults, same as Snowden and others, but nobody is perfect, even if they claim god itself is speaking to them and says they are right.
We have to give up the dream of making a world perfect for us by excluding the others, no matter the criteria used. The world will be diverse or wont be at all. As i said before, even if we were all the same thinking the same by some absurd means, we will get bored in a few minutes.
The answer is that a piece of pottery from 10k years ago is worthless for its primary function (to cook or keep food in) even if perfectly preserved, but it is priceless for the history and for us to understand how we came to be. One gold roman coin is not worth the gold, but the historic value is much higher. Is that influenced by the fact that romans were right or wrong ? That server is a piece of history, that server was part of a campaign for the truth, for unmasking conspiracies that play with our lives and livelihood and the future of our kids, even the future of human kind. I would say it is worth a lot more than 10 k. Nobody that cannot afford it will bid, so, no problems for us.
I wonder what the specs are, As for 10k you must be expecting alot, Seems a little weird who would buy a server for that much just because of wikki leaks site was hosted on there, Wondering if the server that hosted my site will sell? http://www.ebay.com/itm/DELL-POWEREDGE-R410-SERVER-2-X-INTEL-QC-E5520-2-26GHZ-24GB-RAM-1-X-1TB-SATA-/141050145702?pt=COMP_EN_Servers&hash=item20d73e6ba6 Anyone? lol jokes
Haha, this photo could be a new classic meme background--on par with 'successful child': http://www.technewstoday.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/success-kid-story_o_553759.jpg
Do you really thinks that there are any specs expectations? It's not like owner will offer "premium VPS solutions for low price" but rather show off with it in a private museum What do you think they will host with this thing Apple 1 breaks auction record, goes for $671,400 :P
