Wasn't there a woman in Armenia or something who cut a cable in her house the internet for the whole country dropped. I find it difficult to believe what I just wrote but I recall it. Ah: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2011/apr/06/georgian-woman-cuts-web-access https://www.theguardian.com/world/2011/apr/06/georgian-woman... She was in Georgia.

Hummm from reading the article it doesn’t seem like she just “cut a cable in her house” but rather vandalized a major optic fiber cable while trying to steal copper not on her property.

    I'm definitely leaving her be! Do you think she's going to come and read hacker news comment and be offended? We don't even know who she is. I'm just correcting facts here.
