美国圣路易斯Nine PBS电台因云存储服务商Open Source Storage停业无法取得联系,向Iron Mountain数据中心提起诉讼,试图访问存储在其服务器上的50TB历史档案数据[1]。该电台于7月28日在丹佛地区法院正式起诉[1]。
这批数据跨越70年的积累,包含了11000多个文件,涵盖COVID-19疫情报道、East St. Louis地方历史以及1993年大洪水等重要新闻素材[1]。Nine PBS表示,这些数据中的"大部分"为"独特且不可替代"的资料[1]。
Nine PBS, a public broadcasting station based in St. Louis, filed a lawsuit in Denver District Court on July 28 seeking access to 50 terabytes of data stored on servers operated by Iron Mountain Data Centers [1]. The station lost contact with Open Source Storage, the cloud storage provider that had managed the archive, leaving the broadcaster unable to retrieve decades of irreplaceable content [1].
The disputed data spans seven decades and includes more than 11,000 files documenting critical moments in local and national history [1]. Nine PBS described the collection as containing COVID-19 pandemic coverage, the history of East St. Louis, and footage of the 1993 Mississippi River floods [1]. According to the station, the vast majority of this material is unique and cannot be reproduced [1].
