TechCrunch reports that Meta is investing $10 billion in a new 40,000+ km subsea cable project, which will be exclusively owned to ensure traffic prioritization.
Sunil Tagare, subsea cable expert, suggested that this project, known as the 'mother of all submarine cables,' represents Meta's strategic move away from politically sensitive regions.
Meta plans to connect the US east and west coasts while integrating points in regions like India and South Africa, steering clear of geopolitical tensions.
The completion of this ambitious cable project could take 5-10 years, with more details expected to be announced by Meta in early 2025.
