The Internet has a weakness which could shut it down for months

Not many people realise that undersea cables transport nearly 100% of transoceanic data traffic.

The satellites are still up there. We've lost our undersea cables a few times, everything slowed down, SA didn't implode/
The article itself then goes on to explain all the redundancies.

Fear-mongering article is fear-mongering

Lol, slow news day probably? Mandatory articles targets for the day not yet made?

 

[allthatweare]

They’re about as thick as a garden hose

Don't know what other hippy bull**** they're spouting in that article, but that's where I stopped reading.

Your post is not massively helpful either. How about listing your objections to this piece? That will certainly contribute to the discussion.

Click bait day again.

I could swear I just read a copy and paste article from various news articles that have been covered on MyBB with regards to these cable systems.

Exactly. He adds nothing to the discussion. And he will not respond - too much of a loser.
