Update(15 Feb): Well, it seems I'm mistaken about the total number 5. I'd read a report online which I think was from Reuters that said it was 5. Anyway, even if its just 3, the incident had me off the net for 2 whole days, and then real slow for another 2 days.
Update(17 Feb): More news of the report of 5 cables being cut. See here for one such report.

sure @ ship anchors. But 5 cables at various locations? Hard to believe.
Hi Kaps - so what caused it do you know? Seems perfectly reasonable to me that they could be broken accidentally by ships but also deliberately sabotaged - and yes - does make you aware of the vulnerability of our networks.
Thanks for stopping by Found in Pockets and leaving your comment - much appreciated! Wow - you have quite a few blogs, I'll drop by and check them out! Nice work. SJ xx
I never know those cables were so vulnerable. Maybe they will make them stronger in the future. You can join our blog group if you like its at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/myblogsites/
