blackholed on all of them? good fucking luck with peering, you are basically on the intranet.
Who is Tim Berners-Lee?
everyone owns internet. the internet is created by adding multiple devices.
Teenagers. They're the group that spends the most time on it creating trends. A smart 15 year old solo can take down a big corporation on the internet. It's a place where creativity and intelligence outshines age and wealth.
Companies, Countries, Governments and Individuals own it.
They only control small part each and interact with each others following international agreements and standards.
The question is the same with "Who owns this planet".
Nobody owns the internet. It's us all. Peering with each other, network to network, device to device.

If someone has the power to shut it down, that’s the owner. Though I’d be interested to see how far the “internet kill switch” from Obama’s years would actually reach, I suspect it’s pretty far because there’s a noteworthy portion of the backend of the internet as we know it right here in the US. If we were wiped off of the map today, I don’t think the internet as anyone knows it would be there tomorrow, it would take a while to build it back up.
Things that are by nature decentralized don’t always end up being that way in practice. It’s not hard for the wealthiest and most powerful to control decentralized networks by gaining control over the most vital points, be it by controlling the most influential peers or by controlling the repos.
I mean, if it’s controlled by a million computers owned by a million people, buy 3 million computers and pretend to be 3 million people.
