    You’re looking at a map of undersea cables. You can’t see the terrestrial cables that connects to one or more of those locations. They are not an isolated “intranet” but connected to the internet.

      I came across this map of terrestrial cables

      It doesn’t appear to connect to the Hudson Bay cables

        I’ve seen that map - it’s missing countless cables I know for certain exist. I assume the cables connecting those sites are not in ITU’s register.
