More on the baltic internet cable cut:

Now it seems a Chinese bulk carrier passed through the area around the time the cable was cut, on its way from Russia to Egypt. Given suspicions that China has been offering to aid the Russian war effort, investigators are now working on a hypothesis that the ship was either carrying Russian operatives, or that the damage was done on behalf of Russia.....

One thing's for sure: it wasn't an accident!

@ChrisMayLA6 a butt carrier?!

My money’s on Elno doing it to get more StarLink customers.

@inpc

Thanks, typo now corrected.... yes, its a sad world when the suggestion it might be Musk seeking market share doesn't seem completely implausible
