Global internet tensions rise

The global Internet network faces significant challenges due to military tensions, especially with the threats of war against Iran that could target underwater internet cables in the Strait of Hormuz. These cables are the backbone of over 99% of international data traffic. The risks of attacks on these cables are increasing, while governments are trying to enhance censorship and impose systems that restrict access. This has led to the emergence of a "fragmented internet" and the formation of closed internal networks. Researchers warn of the fragility of internet infrastructure and emphasize the need to diversify routes across maritime, land, and satellite pathways to ensure continuous connectivity and reduce reliance on vulnerable routes.
