Yes people, three cables linking the Middle East with the World has been cut up to date. The latest cable was cut earlier this morning, and links Australia and Japan with Europe via India and the Middle East.

Together with the other two cuts in the Mediterranean sea, the intarweb is taking serious strain.

News reports claim that 80% functionality will be returned over the weekend, so heres holding thumbs!

I for one am looking forward to restored funktionality, since the 30th every second page failed to load, but speeds seem fine according to my highly scientific “download random stuff” test.

Interesting that this has happened in such a short time in two different parts of the world…
