Similar systems are actually being build, but with a bigger scale (like big office buildings). There is no freezing involved, just heating the office space with warm water in the winter (cooling the water to ~10°C) and…
They recently shut down all the servers of a Chinese reseller with 45 servers after a lot of their servers were the target of a DDOS. It's of course understandable to disable those servers in case of a big DDOS, but the…

The placebo is actually there in double-blinded tests to remove any bias and other factors related to the experiment. And no matter how good/legitimate the experiment, any measurement pretty much always causes changes.…
