Internet

2008, Lou Schuler, "Foreword", in Nate Green, Built for Show, page xi
[I]f you think the Internet existed in 1970, I can only guess that the education system has left at least one child behind.

The global, decentralized network of computers which communicate with one another using the Internet protocol suite, which now forms a vital part of global communication, content sharing, and information exchange systems.

Not to be confused with the Josh Hutcherson Saturday Night Live sketch that's almost impossible to find online, the tragedy of Peanut, an Instagram-famous squirrel that was euthanized late last month, has sent the internet into mourning.

2024 November 4, Kate Lindsay, “Can We Please Not Politicize Peanut's Death?”, in Vulture, archived from the original on 2024-11-24:

(by extension, informal) The global community of individuals communicating via the Internet.
