#2 3 cables in what .. 72 hours .. unheard of (if I'm wrong please correct me) .. this with the news that Iran internet access is now completely disrupted..?? this puts N Africa at 30 percent effective acess - especially Egypt (I read it is at 40 percent capacity) - and the mid east almost as bad...
... anyone with more info...??
