Ladies and gentlemen, today let's talk about a major event related to the lifeblood of the global Internet! It is said that in distant Yemen, there is a force called the Houthis, and if they give a pair of scissors to the submarine fiber optic cable on a whim, it will really stab the hornet's nest! What do you mean? Let me break it down.
First of all, we have to talk about where this submarine fiber optic cable is sacred. They are like the blood vessels of the Internet, responsible for transmitting data and information around the world. The optical fiber cables passing through the Red Sea are the top priority, connecting the four continents of Europe, Asia, Africa and Oceania. If this Houthi rebel really moves his mind, the consequences will be unimaginable!
Look at the name of this fiber optic cable, imewe, fea, mena, ......All of them are giants of international communications. Let's just say that the FEA fiber optic cable, up to 280,000 kilometers is the information superhighway between China and Europe. If this road is broken, the communication and cooperation between the two sides will be greatly affected!
Let's talk about the EIG fiber optic cable between India and Europe, 150,000 kilometers long, the friendship between the Indian people and the European people depends on it! There is also Seamewe-3 and No. 4 fiber optic cables, which extend from Australia to Southeast Asia and then to Europe, which is a full 390,000 kilometers, if this is broken, how many countries will be affected!
Of course, the Houthis are not stupid, they know that it is not good for anyone to make a big fuss. If the Eurasian and African continents are in chaos, then the United States, which is far away in the Americas, will reap the benefits. Therefore, there is a high probability that they are just talking about it, and they have to weigh it if they really want to do it.
But then again, it's not entirely impossible. After all, anything can happen in this world! If the Houthis really go crazy one day, the global Internet will suffer. When the time comes, you will have to think carefully about how to deal with this sudden "Internet apocalypse"!
In short, the importance of this submarine fiber optic cable is self-evident. They are not only related to the smooth flow of global communications, but also a bridge connecting the friendship of people of all countries. I hope this Houthis can think twice before acting, and don't do anything stupid that harms others and themselves!
Oops, look at my crow's mouth! But then again, this is also a reminder that we have to keep an eye on the security of these critical infrastructures. Otherwise, it will be too late if something really happens one day! Ladies and gentlemen, do you think this is the reason?
Okay, okay, that's all for now! See you next time!
