"How one clumsy ship cut off the web for 75 million people" "The Guardian," February 1, 2008
The author seems to be a little confused about directions ("Although the direct effect of the Mediterranean accident is being felt as far west as Bangladesh." West?? I thought Bangladesh was east of the Mediterranean.), but he does have a point. The global communications system we have is fragile. At least, in some places.
I wrote about this yesterday: "Internet Cables Cut, Outages From Egypt to Bangladesh."
