If islands like mainland Britain had their own dedicated Internet networks,
Web access wouldn鈥檛 slow to a trickle each time North America鈥檚 cities wake up.

such an infrastructure for island nations鈥攍aying a fibre-optic loop around
the coastline, just below the low-water mark (GB 2361124). This would avoid
negotiations with 鈥済reedy authorities or landowners鈥�, he says. The submerged
loop connects to the mainland via spur cables that run in trenches dug at the
bottom of the rivers which pass most major cities.
