Brazil wants to build BRICS Cable through Russia
Good day!
The news feed delighted me, a resident of Vladivostok, with the good news about optics from Brazil to Russia . In short, there is not so much about Vladivostok, as about Latin America as a whole.
So, I quote in my translation:
')
It will look like this:
The reason was the recent revelations of Snowden, in which, in particular, it was told that the Brazilian government structures were "under the hood" from the NSA. Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff demanded an explanation from the United States and even canceled her visit there.
Formally, Brazil thus wants to fence itself off from the “pernicious influence of the West”, taking control of its lines of communication with the outside world. Under the same pretext, the government will in every possible way dare government agencies from using American services and drag them to local services.
However, there is a distinct interest here. Now, almost all traffic from the countries of Central and South America goes "outside", that is, to all other segments of the Internet, through a single point - a single data center in Miami, USA. It is clear that we don’t have much to say about any information security. Should anything happen to this building, referred to in the Network Access Point article, and Brazil, for example, will be effectively cut off from the information space. So Dilma’s concerns are understandable.
By the way, the telecommunications market of the mentioned countries has been growing by leaps and bounds in recent years. Here, for example, an analyst on the media streaming market , not bad showing the general trends. So it is quite logical to expect that by not skating or skating, Brazil will become a locomotive that will pull the Latin American Internet to a new level.
PS If your hometown, from which traffic even to neighboring South Korea goes through Moscow, will get at least a small piece of broadband, you can tell Citizen Snowden an inhuman thank you :)

Brazil is carrying out its plan - to lay the BRICS Cable.
According to the plan, the fiber will continue from the Brazilian city of Fortaleza to the Russian Vladivostok. It will go through Africa and Asia, connecting along the path to the cables going to Europe and the Middle East.
