The map is current cables, for reference :) https://www.submarinecablemap.com/ https://www.submarinecablemap.com/ AFAICT this post isn't "false" as much as "speculation". Given the news that a cable will be spanning the Atlantic ocean with an end goal of South Asia, South Carolina -> Africa doesn't seem insane. Though it looks like there's no cables there right now... I was coming in here to complain about "encompass" vs "encircle", but now I'm fascinated by this map. Cool webdev, too! EDIT: My biggest takeaway is that we should conquer/buy/steal French Polynesia. Also, huge shoutout to the Leif Erikson cable, connecting Oslo with the absolute middle of nowhere[1] in Canada. Oil rig thing, maybe...?
