Taiwan Strait
The Taiwan Strait appears in Why the Trump administration plans to boost funding for subsea cables as a maritime region where cable incidents and concerns involving ships make undersea infrastructure politically sensitive. The episode keeps the point at the level of concern and attribution difficulty, not a settled finding of deliberate sabotage.
The source makes the strait relevant to Regional Network Topology Risk: an internet path can be technically efficient and economically valuable while also crossing a geography where China, maritime pressure, and Undersea Data Cables create strategic exposure.
