Inside the mind and heart of Venkatesh Sridhar

I was reading Balu’s blog which I was able to access as he was kind enough to fill out his details when he commented on my post about the Communist Party of India. I came across an interesting post titled, ‘India’s security compromised?‘, it was an intriguing title and off I went to read it. I went through it and started typing out a comment and it just grew so long that I felt it had to be spawned into a post.

In the post, Balu talks about how a terrorist can be lured into thinking that attacking the fibers that connect India to the world will be able to bring India to an abrupt and devastating halt. There were fears expresses that the high seas cannot be monitored, there are neighbors who cannot be trusted and that not having cables through land can be a major source of security lapse.

Then, I come across this post on ZDNet Blogs, titled ‘Pakistan removed from the Internet‘. I was like whoa, what the hell happened there. I thought the ICANN was banning Pakistan and not allowing it to use the Internet or something on those lines. But, here is what actually happened:
