Yeah but international Internet is a different beast, and it originates from the U.S. anyway before Obama gave it away like a traitorous bitch.
If the cables were cut, the U.S. would (likely) still be able to communicate with servers hosted within our own country (barring server dependencies hosted externally, e.g. a cloud based server hosted in Buttfuckistan, United Kingdom also known as London).
It would be destructive and awful, but not the end of the world.
I try to just casually mention to people that I heard we are going to have a big blackout, but don't worry it will only be for 10 days. Another is, I heard a rumor that there is a fake UFO invasion planned, might not be true but good to know. I tell them that is silly because lasers go right through holograms, and a lot of cat people have lasers.
Nah, anime says cat girls use swords.
"cat people have lasers" KEK.
I love replacing fear with laughter.
I currently, not by choice have 6 cats and a grama chihuahua, I moved here with 3 cats and found I am one of the best drop off points in town for unwanted or pregnant ones. I love cats but dang, give me a break.
You're obviously a kind person. The cats are seeking you out on their own I think.
So most lefties are OK.
No, I have cats and lasers, I only weigh 85.6 lbs, so I don't qualify. 😁😂🤣
Well said... you beat me to this explanation, but to expand on it a bit...
The Internet is best thought of as a "network of networks". Cutting undersea fiber-optic cables would cause segmentation, not a blackout.
The Internet would be broken up into segments, since some of the networks would not have connectivity to other networks. Traffic within the segmented networks would still be fine, but would not be able to reach the other networks (continents)... satellites and earth stations would not be affected (Starlink, etc.)
Very few things in life depend on network connectivity to other continents... so any doomsday predictions being made are just loud farts. I like the fart description better than "fake news". Seems more accurate.
Because farts will never not be funny.
Just reading this and I'm laughing. Don't even have to hear one. KEK
There would be massive routing problems and the internet would slow to a 56K modem really fast if enough of the large back haul cables were to suddenly "go off line".
