70% of all global internet activity

Passes through data centers in Loudoun County, Virgina.

Isn't the intelligence apparatus of the USA also in Virginia? And Darpa started the internet and it's somewhere closeby if I recall.

So what you're saying is that almost all internet traffic comes2gether there? 😅

That's slowly changing though.

The one and only thing that Elon Musk is doing right is his global network of satellites. Give it a decade and that figure will change.

@DeWayfarer the satellites still need to communicate with data centers on the ground though, I have Starlink, and it's fantastic with it's response time though

isn't that where the CIA and NSA are...

The rest probably passes through neighboring prince william or Fairfax by hook or by crook.
I would think that Asian-to-Asian traffic alone would outstrip that
