Or simple any page on E.g. Russia or North Korea. Especially if you as the wiki admin lives in some non-western country. Wouldn't be so surprised if you'd get a knock on the door or need a new window sometime soon...

Yeah, I'd wager we'll still be doing that 200 years from now. Probably made out of some fancier material, and better connectors and other wavelengths, but yeah. Still fiber.

If the heavy traffic or the locked out traffic does a right turn in the roundabout, then a solution to this is a bypass lane. This works very well for letting traffic through and opening up the roundabout. Multi-lane roundabouts help when t

There is an issue with them though. If there is very unbalance traffic flow in one direction through the roundabout, traffic from the perpendicular direction tends to be perpetually forced to yield. And only being allowed in the roundabout

Very very hard to get a number on this. From experience I can say that it reduces crime, but it does create massive issues too. Problems are current regulations aren't risk based, which results unproportional compliance costs.
