Located in London, I measured the RTT or round trip time to 574,691 random webservers and plotted the times on the globe.
Discovery was done with masscan, measurements using hping and plotting with an old Python script I’ve revived and enhanced.
This is part of the next writeup on my blog, with which I will be posting any of the code I’ve used.
Cool visualisation!
Thanks! The coolest part IMO is when you overlay it with the subnautical fiber optic network. The north of spain, the US east coast, South-Africa, Brazil, etc all show almost exactly where these cables connect the continents.
