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.
