Beijing now has the power to disrupt global communications after scientists revealed a device that can sever undersea cables.

The tool, which is able to cut lines at depths of up to 4,000 metres (13,123 feet) – twice the maximum operational range of existing subsea communication infrastructure – has been designed specifically for integration with China’s advanced crewed and uncrewed submersibles like the Fendouzhe, or Striver, and the Haidou series.

      I haven’t deleted any of my comments. Why would I?

      I prefer confronting bigots and those with limited understanding and correcting their ignorance.

      You being racist is not “all good dude.”

      You changing your tune is not bad, though.
