Breaking News; A Major Under Sea Internet Cable Cut in France.

Just Yesterday at 20h30 UTC, a major under sea internet cable in the south of France was severed. This in turn caused a break in sub-sea cable connectivity to Europe, Asia and the United States.

Cloud security company Zscaler says that they were forced to make routing adjustments to allow for this.

However, users still face problems due to app and content providers routing traffic through the impacted paths.

“Zscaler is working with the content providers to have them influence their portion of the path,” reads a notice from Zscaler.

Repair crews moved quickly on the scene but had to wait for the police to collect evidence before they were allowed to work on restoring the damage.

This news comes as we learn Scotland is also dealing with cuts to TWO undersea communications cables that connect the mainland to the Shetland Islands. This just two days ago.

Police have declared a major incident after the south subsea cable between the islands and the mainland was cut.

Repairs to another cable connecting Shetland and Faroe are ongoing; after it was damaged last week.

Since the Noord Stream pipe lines were blown up there is an awful lot of this type thing going on?

Will we ever know who is behind it?
