Q+A: What happens when Web traffic goes through China?
SHANGHAI - A congressional advisory group said this week Web traffic to major U.S. corporate and government websites was routed through China for 18 minutes in April because of an incorrect signal sent by China Telecom <0728.HK>. The commission said it was unclear whether the incident was accidental but it affected other countries and amounted to the routing of traffic to 15 percent of all Internet destinations, going through China. China Telecom denied any hijacking of web traffic.
