Meta Plans $10 Billion Subsea Cable to Enhance Global Internet Infrastructure
In a bold move to strengthen its internet capabilities, Meta intends to construct a massive subsea cable estimated to cost $10 billion. This revolutionary project aims to span nearly 25,000 miles and enhance data connectivity across the globe. The company reportedly plans to strategically avoid regions of geopolitical tension, allowing for smoother internet traffic. This endeavor not only positions Meta as a competitor against tech giants like Google but also aligns with its broader investments in artificial intelligence. While Meta has declined to comment on the specifics, the implications of such a project could significantly alter global internet dynamics.
