[AusNOG] SMW3 Restoration

[Matt Perkins]

Sadly It infrastructure sabotage Is not new. I remember cases 20 years 
ago of stolen copper cable being sold for scrap. Recently I think 
SEA-ME-WEA 4 was effected by some alleged  cyber terrorism of the boat 
anchor kind off the coast of Alexandria.  Still other then having 
sovereign navy's patrolling cable routes there's not much I guess can be 
done. Perhaps that's in our future.

Matt.
