as I understand it yes but in this case there was only one cable connecting a vast network to the rest of the internet, quite an oversight for whatever telcos were responsible...


LOL, you'd be suprised to know how common such "irresponsibility" is. And I wouldn't call it exactly like this, infrastructure always costs big money, you know, and it's always pain in terms of ROI. While customers are obviously preferring "cheap" and "unlimited" over anything else. You get what you pay for, after all.


one unsheilded cable covering parts of three countries is kinds bad
