"Over the last 20 years, 100-200 such cables globally have been damaged annually." I read this also all the time, what I don't hear: How do they break? At high sea? By anchors? In a port? By nature? We don't know?
I'm open to the argument, but then someone would need to show some numbers, some trends, reasons and that the current cable breaking is just the same as in the last 20 years.

- drawkward 2y agoThis does not show evidence to refute the claim.
- KingOfCoders 2y agoI can't find anything of what I mentioned in those links. Just the same numbers "with an average of 150 to 200 faults occurring globally each year" thrown around again - again with no source. I would wish for Year Number Fishing Anchor Earthquake ... 2022 128 15 2 5 2021 133 22 8 2 (best grouped by region, Baltic Sea, North Atlanic, South Atlantic, Black Sea, ...) etc.
