This reminds me of a post to the NANOG (North American Network Operator's Group) list from 1999 regarding a fiber cut, which included a suggestion that all fiber be carried inside natural gas pipes so that backhoe operators would be more careful (and a careless backhoe operator could only do it once), as well as the following tidbit (since at the time, something like 80-90% of Internet traffic was Porn): I can just see the sign: Warning
Underground Fiber
Cutting fiber may be dangerous to your supply of Porn
and may cause network engineers to starve.
I'm a little surprised I hadn't heard that story before, but I wasn't living up there anymore and things weren't quite as connected as they are now... Offsides [...] in order to be a realist you must believe in miracles.
