Some fiber optic cables got cut in the Mediterranean the last couple of days. It is reeking havoc on internet connections over here in the Mid-East. I am still able to surf the net, but it is really slow. Some sites aren’t loading at all, and some others seem to be unaffected. It is all crazy. There were a couple of cables cut earlier this year by a boat anchor. (Or at least that was the official story). Some people think that it might have something to do with the tapping some of the lines for nefarious reasons. I am sure there are better ways to do that than this, but we all love a good conspiracy.
