BobB-nw writes "Telecommunication companies need to go beyond just providing bandwidth and look into acquiring Internet destination sites that are heavily trafficked, says Sun Microsystems Chairman Scott McNealy. "I have explained to every telco that either you become a destination site, or the destination site will become a telco," McNealy said at a news conference at Sun Microsystems' Worldwide Education and Research Conference in San Francisco on Wednesday."

    I can quite easily see a fleet of ships around each country connected with a super speed wireless link and plenty of 802.xx pringles cans pointing inland.
    incidentally, the linked article talks about sending 16.4 tpbs(pirate bays per second) so its gotta be good.
