How to Transfer 100GB+ Data Across Continents at Maximum Broadband Speed

Why Overseas Transfers Suffer High Latency
Distance between client and host server causes severe speed throttling:
Undersea Cable Congestion
Data packets routing across trans-oceanic cables encounter high latency.
Single Datacenter Bottlenecks
Legacy providers store files in 1 region, forcing overseas downloads to travel thousands of miles.
