I have a computer in the UK, and you have a computer in the US. I want to send you some data. You want to send me some data. We need to connect our computers together.

A long-ass cable starting at my computer, stretched across the bottom of the ocean, and ending at your computer is no worse solution than any other once you’ve gotten the logistics right.

Now swap the computers out for large ISP’s and you’ve connected together the UK and US’s networks.
