Uses Google data to show the locations, along with the lat/long (using the textual lat longs should be fine from a copyright/data license perspective, though I think lots of OSM people would hem and haw about it being in the same document as Google data).
A lot of the filings are ownership updates to existing cables and don't contain any information about the locations of the cables.

Is this data open? If so, I wonder if it can be added to OpenStreetMap?
FCC regulates them in the US, "Submarine Cable License", they don't just pop out of any document system though. The one I did find:

It's not open; but you can get cable locations near shore in marine maps.
Most cable cut incidents occur either fishing or anchoring a vessel. That's why cable operators send this data to cartography providers.
In the UK and Europe it largely is. KIS-ORCA is one project.
