“We use a customized version of Linux” *proceeds to show the old and insecure windows XP*

[@ShimrraJamaane]

"proceeds to show the old and insecure windows XP" Proceeds to comment on a six year old video about their use of technology that was still being supported and patched (i.e. not insecure like you say) at the time.

[@donaldsgaeta2334]

was made in 2013

[@jonny6702]

For the servers, not the PCs for monitoring, etc

[@jonny6702]

Those PCs for monitoring also probably do not have an outside connection to the world, or otherwise extremely strict network rules only allowing specific addresses to communicate. Don’t you think google is a step ahead of you on OS security?

[@uchihasurvival]

For others wondering, it's at 3:04. They probably use Windows XP for testing their equipment, which means it is offline.

Wow Google uses Microsoft Windows XP in their data centers. It's a really great data centers. I hope I can work here after I graduated.

[@heok5233]

[@mantrik007]

Actually Google uses a custom version of Linux in its data centers not windows xp

[@jimmynuarin15]

It look like Windows XP because of the native theme. Just look at the picture on the thumbnail.

[@jimmynuarin15]

I know right. It's kinda bit amazing to see other company uses Microsoft products. haha

[@djkekz6617]

Ok

[@abuthahir8448]

go to the data center, try to enter inside the server space, by pointing your rights to access your data

[@carsonky]

2:29 , looks like they are also working on cryopreservation techniques

[@infobytesbdasia3009]

How long --the longevity?? -the durability of these data centers?? is there any updated videos?? pls google share...share...

[@urvasidugana8875]

Wonderful video

[@muffinz4724]

Does Google have rights to project: Androidx86? In other terms, can they use it for their own profit, and maybe even sell it?

[@jcv282]

Weak security. The T1000 would be able to enter with ease

[@greatveemon]

I wish I have a render farm like this.

[@ArafatX]

I worked at Google before as an intern :). Nice company. I have so many experienced with them.

[@genesiscalamiong5354]

may i ask, if i delete my google accounts, profiles and photos, does the data centers still keep those files of mine? are they deleted also by the centers?

[@kobalov1]

doesn't matter as noone would be able to access them.. for sometime yes for sure but eventually they get overwritten

[@user2C47]

maybe a hard drive magnet.

[@HelepodGTech]

lol taking a hard drive, would do no good since they work in a RAID.

[@lewiskelly14]

The data itself maybe secure but it doesn't stop you from scanning it and using it to Target Advertising at me does it?

[@garyschermer5463]

It neat they have 100's of millions of dollars in physical security, but every Intel CPU they have, has the Intel Management Engine which is a way of accessing every computer under the OS level.

[@AndrewLuhring]

All this video did was describe how difficult it would be to gain access to the servers without detection... but not all people who want to gain access to a thing care about not being detected. What do they do when an unauthorized person gains physical access to the servers? There's no way there is not a plan for that.

[@Nanorisk]

+Andrew Luhring Encryption, mentioned in the early part of the video.

Holy crap, I was thinking the same thing!

[@genesiscalamiong5354]

i mean if i delete it on my androids? does the data centers still keep it.

[@theren8311]

+Genesis Calamiong Depends on if that data was local or not. Chances are if it wasn't then they would still have some metadata hanging around just incase you may need to recover. It may depend on the data category as well. Something to do with business may stick around. Personal stuff that isn't of much use like a photo or so may be completely scrapped.

[@prod_cass]

YES GOOGLE KEEPS EVERYTHING

HaHa there using Xp , i love this

[@starman8853]

Dungeon Siege what’s your point? This was back in 2013 when a lot of people used XP and it was still secure. They had legit no reason to upgrade to 7 or 8 at the time

[@mysticaxolotl8215]

@@starman8853 It's even older than that, this is a reupload of a video from 2011

[@hrpip]

what good is the protection if you just sell the info anyway?

[@raptus9115]

The info is sold only with a Users Permission, doing so without permission would violate a users legal rights as well as breaking numerous Google policies, if permission is given to the sale of information, it is always done securely to trusted companies. If they just "sell the info" those who seek to do wrong with that data would get their hands on it, putting that user at risk.

[@starman8853]

I know this is a four year old comment but there was nothing wrong with that at the time, XP was still very secure and used by most companies still. Why would they spend all of the money upgrading the OS and all of their software if the old one works just fine?

Because of costs and this was in 2013. I’d rather not explain the reasons right now so just watch the Linus Tech Tips video on SSDs taking over hard drivers

[@starman8853]

JakeFox it was. This was made in 2013 when XP still was used by a lot of people. They had no reason to upgrade at that time since it was secure. It would also cost a lot of money to upgrade all of their software for updating and I’m sure it did when they eventually would’ve switched to a more modern version of Windows
