Meta has unveiled Project Waterworth, a monumental initiative to lay a 50,000km cable connecting the US, India, South Africa, and Brazil. This will be the longest underwater cable ever, designed to support digital infrastructure and artificial intelligence efforts. With over 95% of internet traffic relayed through these cables, recent severing incidents raised security concerns, prompting NATO to enhance surveillance. Meta plans to remedy potential risks through advanced burial techniques for cables in vulnerable areas, emphasizing increased global digital connectivity and economic collaboration especially in rapidly growing Internet markets like India.
Project Waterworth aims to establish the world's longest sub-sea cable network, enhancing global connectivity while addressing concerns over cyber security.
