A Swedish company revealed that it contains servers Wikileaks

A Swedish software company said Friday it helped since 2008 information website Wikileaks by hosting servers located in a basement in a suburb of Stockholm.

Mikael Viborg, owner of the web hosting company PRQ, told AFP that the space that contains "hundreds of servers" was located "somewhere in Solna, about 5 km from the center of the Swedish capital.

(Wikileaks) contacted us via a third party in Sweden in 2008 and they bought the service of "tunnel", so their traffic goes through us, "he says.

"This means that the files themselves are elsewhere but they are sent through our machines. When someone downloads it, this appears to be from here," continued the Swede 27.

But "we have no control of what Wikileaks publishes. We are not in contact with them. They never asked us to publish something," defends Mr. Viborg, who says he was never contacted by Swedish authorities.

The Swedish entrepreneur has shown the local Swedish daily Dagens Nyheter in not allowing him to look inside and demanding that does not reveal the exact address.

A law graduate, he has been in the past including "legal advisor" of the site illegal online file sharing The Pirate Bay.

Wikileaks, founded in 2006 and specializes in intelligence, released in late July over 70,000 records classified throwing a harsh light on the war in Afghanistan, including revelations about the civilian victims or the alleged ties between Pakistan and insurgents but also contain the name of Afghan informants.

The site, whose revelations have sparked a media storm and diplomatic work has already said through servers located in Sweden and Belgium.

The Pentagon has raised its voice Thursday against Wikileaks by requiring the website to make information "immediately" the 15,000 secret military documents on Afghanistan has not yet published and he retired from those already Canvas disseminated.
