I've been reading recently about major disruptions to the submarine internet cables, mostly affecting parts of Asia [0] [1]. Have some of you working at large companies seen the impacts of this on your engagement numbers? There's lots [2] about how such disruptions affect speed, but no so much about how it might affect things we rely on the internet for. I'm hoping to write this up for a class essay or as a short paper, so any inputs would be helping an academic cause![0] http://www.theguardian.com/technology/2013/mar/28/damaged-undersea-cable-internet-disruption
