Hi, Srikanth
Yes, if the Wikimedia Foundation sets up servers in India they will have to
comply with local regulations, which is something they may not be too keen
on. SEA-ME-WE 4 is a bottleneck for India and many other countries in the
region, and we can expect that the private players collaborating with
the maintenance of undersea infrastructure will also invest in building
redundancies so that a single cable outage does not adversely impact the
region.
Cheers,
Anirudh

Hi Pavanaja,
If servers are hosted in India, they will have to comply with local
regulations. This might cause problems.
Can someone with legal knowledge like Anirudh clarify on this?

Hi all,****

Hope you are aware of the slowing of Internet in India due to the cut in
undersea cable near Egypt. I am finding websites hosted outside India
opening very very slowly, or some don’t open at all. Websites hosted in
India open quickly. Google has servers in India. Wikipedia opens very very
slowly. This brings up the idea that there must be servers in India for
Wikipedia and other Wiki projects.****

Thanks and regards,****
