I had a revelation while working on this project, compiling a lot of information and doing what is called "dorking." Compiling data makes you feel like a node within a circuit where there is only information, very cold. All one does is recycle the available data according to one's own vision, in addition to creating new ones by interviewing people. Contribute, find, edit according to your criteria... All integrated into a circuit of nodes always controlled and identified, in parallel or contrary systems that prevent us from seeing the world in its totality, leading us to alienation, far from the world. So, I presented all my documentation and research work on a page that simulated a data center that, when processing, gave the sensation that the data overflowed, mixed with each other, providing new lines of meaning.

Therefore, it becomes vital to see who the owners of the cables are, where they pass, the great connection there is between, for example, the United States and Europe, compared to the relatively little there is with the poorest areas of the world. When passing near a cable landing station, you discover all the people who are working inside. There is also a human element that we do not take into account.
We always forget that: who has paid to build and use an infrastructure and how they intend to recover their investment, who are the ones who work in them and maintain them. Because this entire technological system will require an increasing energy expenditure and resources. Metals, minerals, water... But they are still selling that all this is in the form of clouds or cyberspace... The reality is simpler: cables, stations, ships, drones, devices, data centers... A metallic world that can be touched.
