Fantastic and timely analysis of latency shifts on the paths among ATLAS probes after Sunday/Monday's odd double cable cuts in the Baltic Sea. https://labs.ripe.net/author/emileaben/does-the-internet-route-around-damage-baltic-sea-cable-cuts/

The takeaway message is a good one, too: the Internet routes around this damage, with only minor changes in latency. But by itself, the event doesn't reveal the *depth* of resilience: what would happen after the third, or fourth, or tenth such cable cut in a short window of time...

Hat tip to @ripencc @meileaben

In case you needed another reason to support @internetarchive .. consider their End of Term project, which attempts to archive a big chunk of the US Government's web presence before each new 4-year presidential term begins.

This is truly a race against time, to preserve information that may no longer be available on the live web for open access.
