      It is a series of tubes. At no point does the webshop business model make the internet itself work. Happy to be of assistance

        Did I not make that statement about how we don’t need the webshop business model? You just need a tube to connect to the series of tubes. You can pay someone for the tube or make your own damn tube.

          Yes. So still, the isp that buy networks so they get built, then you can rent cable access from them. It’s like you are confusing my position with yours?

              “A new internet may come when the money for this one dries up” I refute it because it is just cabling and it’s not going anywhere

                You know there’s an Internet 2 right? That’s what I’m talking about when I stated “A new internet” . A real Internet 3 and not “Web 3.0”. Internet 2 is a separate series of tubes, cables, wires, whatever you want to call it dedicated to just research. You know what’s not on Internet 2? Ads or web business models. So I have no idea what you are refuting. Nobody said we needed Web Business to make the cables work. Nobody said the money drying up would make the internet cease to function.
