    Conspiracy theories emerge after internet cables cut
    http://www.abc.net.au/news/stories/2...?section=world

    Is information warfare to blame for the damage to underwater internet cables that has interrupted internet service to millions of people in India and Egypt, or is it just a series of accidents?

    When two cables in the Mediterranean were severed last week, it was put down to a mishap with a stray anchor.

    Now a third cable has been cut, this time near Dubai. That, along with new evidence that ships' anchors are not to blame, has sparked theories about more sinister forces that could be at work.

    Where's Cthulhu?

    There are a lot of cables out there on the bottom of the ocean. The process of laying sea cables is fairly labor intensive.
