Should I be worried about open street cabinets affecting my internet? Anyone could just pour water or physically damage the cables inside.
No. Street cabinets are only a decoy so that copper theft don't think to look for the real ones which are underground.

So you're saying these don't do anything?
The worst part is that the UK actually looks like that.

I know somebody who works as a mail carrier. Somebody delivers the boxes by car with the mail and locks them up inside the cabinets. Then someone else delivers the mail by bike or on foot.

Greem ones are cable, telephone or fibre cabinets in the UK. The small grey ones are for mail.

Funny, that's entirely true. Okay, I went to London but anyway, it's England. The bus ride from Stansted to London (Westminster to be exact) went through shitty areas that look like Bethnal Green though the bus didn't go through that specific area. Every corner had a Halal shop, no one was white. A disturbing amount of Indians too, it's like the entire Microsoft PR team is located in London.

Rain doesn't affect them because they're waterproof.

the title "engineer" is given to people that maintain and troubleshoot engines
you know, the things that make ships move
people that get their hands dirty in incredibly hot and humid environments to make a big thing move
you're bitching about people stealing a title you're stealing
