    1. From the article: Fears that a rogue nation could attack undersea cables as a way of impacting internet connectivity and digital communications have risen in recent times. To prepare for the worst, NATO is helping to finance a project that will investigate a way of keeping the internet running should the cables be sabotaged: rerouting data through satellites.

      Increasing geopolitical tensions have raised concerns that countries such as Russia, China, and North Korea could target subsea cables during a military crisis. Such a thing is not unprecedented; Yemeni Houthi rebels were suspected of damaging underwater Red Sea cables responsible for 17% of global internet traffic in February. Elsewhere, Sweden said in October that damage to a Baltic subsea cable linking Estonia and Sweden was “purposeful.”

      Bloomberg [reports](https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-07-08/nato-backs-effort-to-reroute-internet-to-space-in-event-of-subsea-attacks?srnd=technology-vp) that researchers, including academics from the US, Iceland, Sweden, and Switzerland, want to develop a way of seamlessly rerouting internet traffic from subsea cables to satellite systems in the event of an attack or damage from natural disasters.

    2. How does common person prepare for this- have local LLM installed? Suggestions?
