    1. There is lot's of audio (and video) on the Internet.
    2. Your fiber break affected a very small number of users; it was a local, not an international, outage.
    3. It is called the Internet because it is a network of networks with a very high degree of redundency and reliability. The eggs are in lots of baskets.

    The Internet is a global network comprising many voluntarily interconnected autonomous networks.

    yeah and whenever southeast asia feels like it they push some bad BGP tables and take out access to the rest of the world, eh, they'll fix it in an hour or two, chill out, it's no big deal

    Internet routing is a lot more tenuous and unreliable than people think.

    Exactly right, watched some routes and AS changes from Turkey this morning.

    Remember when Pakistan tried to block YouTube? Remember when China redirected some huge fraction of US traffic for a few hours?

    Fragile.
