Is Internet a physical infrastructure?

Okay, so is the internet, like, actually a real, physical thing? You know, something you could theoretically touch?

Well, yeah, it totally is! I mean, think about it. It’s not just some magic cloud, right? The internet is a physical infrastructure. When you get down to it, it’s a HUGE network – a crazy web, really – of cables (some under the ocean!), routers buzzing away in dark rooms, and massive server farms chugging along 24/7. All that stuff is what connects our phones, computers, and everything else together across the globe. Without all that stuff, no cat videos, no online shopping, no late-night chats with friends! It’s kinda mind-blowing when you think about it.

Now, here’s where it gets a little tricky. The World Wide Web, though? That’s different. I always thought of it like this: the internet is like the roads, and the web is like the cars and trucks driving on those roads. The web is all the information – websites, emails, apps – that we access using the internet. So, the web relies on the internet. You can’t have one without the other, but they’re not exactly the same thing, you know? It’s like… a symbiotic relationship, or something!
