Have you seen what happens on the global interchange when just one cable gets interrupted?
I have. Usually.the network tries to route around it, with best effort delivery. This keeps the outage localized and is part of network standards. You can expect delay, though. I guess I don’t see what you’re getting at.
I’ve worked international voice and data networks and I can’t imagine the number of points of presence they would have to hit in your dream scenario. They simply couldn’t do it without going to war, when this effort would give way to plans of survival.
You don’t understand. They’re just talking shit. They are very aware of what they have to do to start a war with the west. Yet they don’t because they know that it’ll last 20 minutes.
I don’t know if it was you, but I first responded to someone who indicated that losing a network link causes chaos. That is not true. Then they fantasize that a number of links are involved, which is near impossible1
