    The storage capacity this needs…
    I wanna see that infrastructure! I need to see it in person!

  China is claiming…

  Aaaand I no longer have any confidence in the validity of this claim.

  When I see these pro-China pieces, I remember that Chinese citizens can’t speak freely, exercise political will, or breathe clean air. As well as China’s actions towards the annexation/militarization of surrounding waters, erasure of Tibetan and Uyghuar cultures, and propagation of destabilizing online propaganda.

    Chinese citizens can breathe clean air. Japan is only a 4 hour flight away

      That’s an unusual way to spell Taiwan, but sure?

    All true. They have their own version of this though.

    “When I see pro American pieces, I remember that their citizens are obese and undereducated, or subjugated by centuries old race caste system and incarcerated at very high rates. Their schools are failing, their cities are riddled with crime, their infrastructure is crumbling, half of them hate the other half, and they wield imperial control around the world with their military, killing a million Iraqis to secure their oil.”

      I’m sure they’d love to come live in the YS though.

      Also all true, sadly. I’m so lucky to be European, although it’s not paradise here, either. But still…

  This is moat likely a core/main/back bone switch that feeds many smaller switches. Its not outside the norm, were seeing 400gb and 800gb switches that are easily able to push that much bandwidth out a single port. 1.2tb or 1.6tb switches are the next logical step. You’ll only find these switches in massive datacenters or for server clusters like for AI or high performance computing

    My campus is working on upgrading our redunant 100gb ISP connections to 400gb next summer, so not necessarily just for HPC/AI/‘massive datacenter’.

    Granted, our 100gb edge routers are reaching end of life, and a LOT of grant proposals will be able to put down “400gb uplink on our campus”, which helps lands money. The actual bandwidth utilization normally peaks at like 22gbps.

    It has to be. There’s nothing in anyone’s house that can use anything remotely approaching that much bandwidth.

  Don’t worry, bandwidth will still be shit because of all the spy funnels and filters traffic is run through

  Internet implies that multiple separate networks can all use this link. This is not the case.

  But I guess no externally routable Internet address?

  What a horribly written article. I think I read the same thing 4 or 5 times. Just padding I guess to fill the available bandwidth?

  China’s economy is set up for these headlines, government bodies are spending hard on infrastructure and sometimes it’s good (roads, bridges, dams, most of them have a long term value to a region) and sometimes it’s overbuilt, like the small/medium city with two airports.

  They want the implication to be “China has the best internet, thus China is the best place to go for my internet company” or something like that. But they are intentionally overbuilding for a future state that may never come, just like the small/medium city with two airports.

  It’s great to invest in infrastructure, but other things count too, and there are diminishing returns at some level of development.
