eli5 What is Internet and why do we have to pay for it?
In: 0
The internet is a connection between a large group of computers, sometimes called The Cloud when you access one or more of those computers directly.
You do not pay for the internet, you pay an internet service provider (ISP) to provide access to the linked computer “web.”
It is possible to create your own internet service and even sell it to others, but that involves an investment of money.
