It's great because the internet was initially developed as a decentralized service so that if any part failed, the rest could maintain communications.
Over the past decade, corporations have been actively developing an internet of services that heavily rely on just a small set of services ... and if any of them go down, everything is lost.
Almost like capitalism seeks to dominate every element of material life and the internet is dependent on its material infrastructure to function.
