To me, it seems reasonably obvious that the targets of undersea
tapping would not be cables that make landfall in the U.S., but those
that do not. The point would be to tap lines that travel between two
non-US landfalls. The US is not a terminus for all the world's
communications, although it is involved in a surprising fraction of
international calls...
