We need to realize that it is just the infrastructure. Without those telephone cables, we won't have phonenumbers and cannot call. But the #internet is not so different.
People tend to forget that the only reason you can talk to someone in america or europe via #internet is because there are gigantic data centers build to transport this digital data and distribute it to other countries or under the sea.
Destroy the digital infrastructure center in amsterdam and I am pretty sure many problems arise in europe, as it is a really important part in digital infra structure in europe.
The worldwide web isn't that #decentralized as we might think. And there are also cracks appearing in this web.
This is why it is so important to keep everything to a minimum so you can reduce workload.
