When a cable reaches a data center, it connects to the machine servers. These data centers are typically housed within unmarked and unremarkable buildings—places you wouldn’t give a second glance if you drove past. In many regions, data centers are in remote areas far away from cities, but there are also major data hubs in cities like New York and Los Angeles. If these data centers were to suffer a crippling event, like an act of sabotage, it would cause substantially disruptive ripple effects through many aspects of modern life—which is why they’re housed in unmarked buildings and protected by more security than you’d find at an airport.
