I'm sure some companies did run copper across the Atlantic, but these days, there's not much need to.Now I don't know - maybe they do use phone-line copper wire to send Internet data overseas. But they don't have to, and I would think that they would use a combination of methods - for example, satellite, copper wire, high-powered antenna broadcast, and fiber optic cable - so that they have multiple technologies to fall back on should one fail.

Dr. Paul is big on protecting private property from over-reaching government. 8 to 10 months ago, Ron Paul was Interviewed on GCN (Genesis Communication's Network) and he was confronted with his vote against net-neutrality. Ron Paul explained that at the time of the vote, he was treating the issue as a property rights issue. The importance of net neutrality was discussed at length. Dr. Paul explained that he did not have a back-ground in Internet technology and that he now had a new understanding of this issue and expressed regret for his vote against net neutrality.
