CABLE CUTTING UPDATE: YET ANOTHER INTERNET CABLE CUT
July 1, 2026 / Joseph P. Farrell
This story will seem familiar to those readers who've been watching this website going back about ten to fifteen years. Indeed, it is for the reason that this is not even remotely the first such story that I'm blogging about it, and also because it is the ever-suspicious UK Daily Mail reporting it. As I noted in Monday's blog about the latest quasi-development in the case of missing Air Force General McCasland, the Daily Mail has long been suspected of a deep relationship with Britain's intelligence community, a relationship whose American analogy might best be drawn to the late William Paley, the transformative CEO of the SeeBS... woops, the CBS televsion network, who himself had such long-standing relationships with the intelligence "community".
But back to our story: we hear all the time of internet outages of one sort or another. But occasionally those outages are caused by a severed fiber optic cable, as today:
Half the internet goes down as Cloudflare blames issues on 'fiber cut' in North America
The story is simple:
While the story is simple, my high octane speculative implications from the story are not, and they bear repeating here with this story because the accompanying outages were global in scale, as the article hints without coming right out and saying. Indeed, those "global" problems were "unrelated" to the said fiber cut, but that's according to the company affected, which is not likely to admit any such connection. That's bad for business, and even worse for the klepto-currency central bank digital currency business if your "currency" becomes unusable because of a severed cable. (Real money, of course, you know, coins, paper money, or better, gold and silver, does not have this problem.)
You might recall many years ago that there were similar stories about electrical substations in the Silicon Valley in Loonyfornia being attacked by professional teams that knew exactly where to strike the substation, and when. The team that hit the substation was clearly professional, as the substation was taken down, key equipment removed, before local authorities had even responded. As far as I am aware, the hit remains unsolved to this day. But wait, there's more. A few months later internet cables in San Francisco and Livermore were severed. Again, the team doing so appeared to have been professional, for the cables were severed in an underground access point, apparently by removing a manhole cover. The cables appeared to have been deliberately cut. And again, no apprehensions have been made and the crime remains unsolved. Yet again, in the same few month's time, another internet cable was cut between Flagstaff and Phoenix, Arizona.
And on yet another occasion, a cable outage brough down Salt Lake City air traffic control and affected routing over the entire American southwest. And while we're at it, we might as well mention those infamous attacks by the computer hacking group Anonymous against large banks and even movie, communications and technology giant, Sony. I blogged about many of those stories right here on this website; here's a couple of examples:
INTERNET SERVICE CUT BETWEEN PHOENIX AND FLAGSTAFF: WHY?
YOU TELL US: "VANDALS" SEVER ANOTHER INTERNET CABLE IN CALIFORNIA...SO WHAT'S GOING ON?
There are many more such stories on this website, and to view them simply enter "internet cable cut" on the website's search engine and all sorts of stories will be returned.
So what may be going on? Where's the high octane speculation? At the time of those incidents, I advanced a basic theory, and it's one that bears repeating now and with even more force as so many of our brainless leaders are pushing for a cashless society and all the ills and evils associated therewith: when one adds all these stories together, and considers especially the elements of professional teams behind some of these incidents, someone appears to be mapping the hardware architecture of the internet. Such a map would give any possessor a cartographic key to the new world: it would be the equivalent of possessing a mediaeval portolan depicting, howsoever inaccurately, the New World centuries before its alleged discovery. Such a map would give the possessor knowledge of key vulnerabilities, and so on. As that architecture is modified and changed in the name of "security", such incidents continue, because the map has to be adjusted.
And for a world ostensibly moving to the "benefits" of central bank digital currency and a panopticon surveillance state-cum-beast system, such a map would be the ultimate national and international security issue, able - perhaps quite literally - to bring the entire financial system down in an instant of such coordinated strikes by professional teams. And mark my words, there's a thumb drive out there somewhere, and it contains that map, or at least, it's salient features. Someone has it, and they're not sharing. And everything about these stories tends to make me think that while Mr. Globaloney may possess parts of that map, his picture is not nearly as whole nor complete as the people that have been coordinating these attacks over the past few years. Those instances of professional teams and the overall total picture of coordinated target selection strongly suggest to me that there are state actors of the territorial and non-territorial variety in play. It is as if they are saying to Mr. Globaloney, "Go ahead. Make our day. Put in your global financial beast system. Tokenize all those assets. We know what you want to do, because we're planning to do the same thing." The whole system can be highjacked and stolen in an instant. And if you possess the map, you'll know where and how to hide those assets, and most especially, convert them back to real assets of the tangible physical variety.
Think about these stories the next time you hear any politician touting the advantages and benefits of tokenized assets, digital "currencies", data centers, and so on. And the next time you hear about severed internet cables and massive outages, just think the words "financial warfare."
See you on the flip side...

Half the internet goes down as Cloudflare blames issues on 'fiber cut' in North America
The story is simple:
Dozens of popular websites crashed on Monday, leaving millions without access.
Issues began at 8.35am ET on Monday, affecting a range of services including X, Zoom, Google and Microsoft.
Cloudflare, which provides web security, speed, and routing services for millions of sites, said it is investigating a fiber cut in Eastern North America and believes it is unrelated to the rest of the outages experienced globally.
...
A fiber cut occurs when a fiber-optic cable that carries internet traffic is physically damaged, disrupting the flow of data across a network.
Engineers must locate the break, dispatch repair crews and splice the cable back together before normal service can be restored.
While traffic can often be rerouted through backup connections, major fiber cuts can still trigger widespread outages if critical network routes are affected.
While the story is simple, my high octane speculative implications from the story are not, and they bear repeating here with this story because the accompanying outages were global in scale, as the article hints without coming right out and saying. Indeed, those "global" problems were "unrelated" to the said fiber cut, but that's according to the company affected, which is not likely to admit any such connection.
