Deep-sea cable cutting can be a weapon of deterrence like nukes, RETN CEO says
The CEO of global internet service provider RETN, O'Sullivan, has stated that the threat of cutting deep-sea cables is akin to nuclear deterrence, emphasizing its psychological impact over actual sabotage. He believes the true danger lies in the psychological unease created by the threat of disruption, rather than the act itself. O'Sullivan also noted that major maritime powers like China and the United States are not the primary actors in this specific context, and highlighted naivety about network design as a greater threat to the internet.
