Internet 2010

Lu Zhou smiled and said, "Like a brain pacemaker, if one day our Internet company will collect data directly from the brain, and then return it to the user's brain. It sounds like a terrible thing today. But in fact , it's not much different in form and through a cell phone."

Zhang Xiaolong, "According to what you said, all Internet companies are doing this terrible thing."

Lu Zhou's two index fingers moved in two directions, "Two extremes. Either accept such a thing morally and ethically. Or absolutely private sex."

Zhang Xiaolong, "In the first extreme, do you mean that the control is achieved by the machine, and the human chooses to obey?"

Lu Zhou nodded slightly.

Zhang Xiaolong smiled, "Okay. I think something happened to you to have such an idea. Talk about it."

Lu Zhou replied, "I think a lot of systems inside Penguin often have user behavior analysis at the back end. Including us, too. In this matter, it becomes very simple to understand and analyze a user's behavior.

A very extreme real-life example, the system judges from a user's chat history that she is just pregnant, and if it pushes the flow information of the women's hospital to her, I think the success rate will be very good. "

Zhang Xiaolong, "Well. There is no difference in form and control. For system administrators, this kind of power is a bit too much. When mixed with interests, someone will cheat, or the system itself needs to make profits from it. "

Lu Zhou laughed, which was not inconsistent with cheating and buying recommendations in the banana market.

He said, "Mr. Li of Qiandu said a few months ago, 'Let the machine judge'."

As soon as Zhang Xiaolong heard it, he joked, "Although he didn't do well. Well, in fact, this is the predicament of every Internet person, if you say it according to you."

Lu Zhou shrugged slightly and did not continue the topic.

And the two of them tacitly did not talk about the second extreme that Lu Zhou said. After all, it is absolutely **, even if there are organizations like WikiLeaks in it, most of them are just abused to do illegal things. But actually using it is not so convenient.

......

At the end of the conversation, Lu Zhou also drove back to the university town after dinner.

He turned on the turn signal to enter the expressway in the city, while recalling some recent events, it was not accidental for Lu Zhou to have many unexpected thoughts.

Banana cheating, chatting about Zhang Shishan, chess and card games, p2p, "cash cows", illegal drug gangs in WeChat, WeChat Spring Festival blitz...

Each unusual is related to interests and presented in the form of data. Although many things in the middle are quite troublesome, Lu Zhou can still reasonably grasp and solve them properly.

But farther away, there seemed to be bigger troubles awaiting him. Things also seem to be closely related to these events that have already happened.

Lu Zhou still stared at the front of the car, and the sky was gray and dark. The headlights are still bright, but they can only illuminate the road hundreds of meters ahead.

Someone once estimated such a figure that the sum of all the data from the birth of mankind to 2003 is only 5eb. In today's 2011 the number is 525eb. The amount of one eb is equivalent to one million terabytes.

From this year, when entering the era of the mobile Internet, the amount of data began to grow sharply by hundreds of exabytes per year. To say that 90% of human data will be generated in the next few years may not sound like an exaggeration.

Data is so important that everyone is talking about "cloud", "big data". And when it is associated with each individual, it becomes a very sensitive issue.

The bright light of the headlights shone on the road sign, and Lu Zhou stepped on the accelerator after confirming the road ahead and directly raised the speed of the car.

The nsa Utah data center, a data center with a storage capacity level of yb, is the data center that will be disclosed and put into use in the future in Luzhou's memory.

How big is yb? It's equivalent to a million eb. This almost means that this Utah data center can store all the data generated by all human beings in the next hundred years if the annual data increment of the mobile Internet is calculated.

When a light shines into the prism, the light will split into two. But what if the light contains data? Nice, it's also split in two.

"Maybe that's why the nsa named the plan Prism." Lu Zhou thought with a smile. After all, what flows in the fiber is not the light that carries data.

Although Shoton still didn't expose some things today, he might still be working in the department, but Lu Zhou really had no way to ignore it.

It's about data, it's about sex, it's about the fate of humanity on the entire planet.

What can it do? Lu Zhou looked at the road sign and entered the fork.

Just like the topic discussed when chatting with Zhang Xiaolong, it may be omniscient or even omnipotent. From the source to the "prism" of the stream, all the data is stored in the medium, and then analyzed by the endless machine.

It's going to be a scary and huge map.

Lu Zhou thought that Huaxia Long was probably aware of it. This can be seen from the fact that all the domestic Internet companies in the United States have withdrawn from the Chinese market over the years.

In the past, countries were defined by national boundaries, but today this boundary has become somewhat blurred under the influence of the Internet. Perhaps, it is better for local companies to hold the data, or at least it is safer. Even if the business is profitable, some of them don't look good.

The vehicle entered the University City Ring Road.

At this time, Song Wenhui was still abroad, and he should still finalize some matters about the server room in Singapore.

In Luzhou's plan, WeChat's going abroad is an inevitable link, and it is an established plan that has been in place from the very beginning. The question is only when to do it.

As early as a few months ago, Mengguyun deployed some test servers in the computer room in Southeast Asia and other places according to the arrangement of Luzhou~www.readwn.com~ These are mainly used for the preliminary preparation of WeChat before going abroad. .

Before long, after Song Wenhui's matter is confirmed, WeChat will have to start working on overseas WeChat.

Therefore, for Lu Zhou, this collision has become an unavoidable problem. Even though, what he is facing may be the largest and most meticulous organizational machine in the world.

He admits that he is now a pure engineer or businessman. But on this issue, it was destined to come this far from the beginning.

For Lu Zhou, this may not need any reason.

Lu Zhou drove the car into the parking lot of the Science and Technology Park, and after pressing the lock, he muttered alone.
