Which scale do you use ?

1 trillion = (1 million) ^ 3 ?

What scale do you use ?
The short scale or the long scale...

I say that because the most people on the world use the long scale with :

milliard, billion, billiard, trillion, trilliard...

and

1 billion = (1 million) ^ 2
1 trillion = (1 million) ^ 3
1 quadrillion = (1 million) ^ 4
...

Lets See 150 bytes x 1 trillion....

With new 1.5 terraflop hardrives & if trillion=1 terraflop, about 100 harddrives to store all addresses(each address being less than 150 bytes). =$ fifie thou. of HDD Max.
No More than storing entire terra map project. Most people wouldn't exchange luxuary vechile for 100 HDD, let alone impossibility of finding data. So Must be Tape Job. thus: thou or so in machine + Tape(Use HDD for commonly used url). Plus your ready for lots more tape Jobs. Yet, Trillion addresses as unique webpages cost MORE than Trillion to create. Then What? Unplug Machine Obviously.

Authorities in several countries raided Megaupload recently, shut down all of its services, seized hundreds of servers and arrested several of its executives on criminal charges.

Do you think the move was justified?
