SuperTaz Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 http://news.yahoo.com/insane-process-connecting-world-undersea-internet-cables-155139609.html Underwater cables carried 51 billion gigabytes of data per month in 2013, and that figure is expected to swell to 132 billion gigabytes in 2018. While 10 billion “things” accessed the Internet in 2010, Cisco expects that figure to increase fivefold by 2020. Currently, less than 40 percent of the worldwide population has any access to the Internet at all. In Africa, some 70 percent of its population has a WiFi-connected device, but only 10 percent have access to the Internet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
