Cable damage hits 1.7m Internet users in UAE
DUBAI — An estimated 1.7 million Internet users in the UAE have been affected by the recent undersea cable damage, an expert said yesterday, quoting recent figures published by TeleGeography, an international research Web site.

Internet data was majorly affected as it is the biggest capacity carried by the undersea cables.

Zowie.

Methinks someone is getting ready for some military action.

Either that, or, hang on, Super Mario just phoned in to tell me his warp pipe to World 8 was just destroyed.

wow - I'd like to read more, any links?

Sorry, I nailed the MacUser impression except for linkage.

Here. Edited for terribly long URL. Here as well.

wow, interesting - thanks. it would be easy to think that it is a "conspiracy theory", but just as easy to think it was a dragging ships anchor. what struck me was that there is a International Cable Protection committee:

However, the International Cable Protection Committee, an association of 86 submarine cable operators dedicated to safeguarding undersea cables, has declined to speculate on the cause of the breaches, adding investigations were underway.

reminds me of the Movie Broken Arrow. which is worse, a lost nuke, or knowing that it happens enough that there is a name for it (or something like that).

Bravo.. Excellent Job. Chris.
