that's not the Internet as a whole, is it? only http[s]-services are affected by that. in case of a nuclear attack I guess every service will be affected

- iso1631 4y agohttp? My website runs fine if amazon and cloudflare go down. However as I'm in the UK, a large nuke in Docklands would cause big problems. Most of my company's connectivity reaches the world through Telehouse and Sovereign House, both in Docklands, about a mile from each other. A large nuke landing on top of the Blackwall Tunnel - perhaps on top of Switch (another major building we have), would probably knock both out. You could effectively knock out the UK's internet by sabotaging the Thames Barrier, let alone the damage just a single nuclear bomb in docklands would do.
