China filters everything users type, it's quite problematic as they have to use many proxies... just to view youtube.

I would like to see an actual picture of internet usage, like all the connections in the world and how countries are connected, or even usage density per country

My neighbor is an engineer for TYCO and they run fiber optic cables across the ocean floor, and that is how the continents are connected when separated by a body of water. He also told me that fiber optics are run along interstates and highways...
