Our wonderful senator from Alaska, Ted Stevens, who was heading a committee to discuss the issue of Net Neutrality, described the internet as a series of tubes. He was then ridiculed on The Daily Show.

Answer 1

They are kept in suspension with a lot of guy-wires that are tied to sky-hooks...

Answer 2

tubes?? where are u getting your information from
One of the greatest things about the Internet is that nobody really owns it. It is a global collection of networks, both big and small. These networks connect together in many different ways to form the single entity that we know as the Internet. In fact, the very name comes from this idea of interconnected networks.

Answer 3

I think the internet is still made up of mostly telephone wires. Some dedicated lines were installed underground. There are a couple of fat wires that are under the ocean. Some cities have switched to fiber optics which are also laid underground. So the answer to your question is underground and overhead in telephone wires.

Answer 4

Where did you get the idea that the Internet is made up of a lot of tubes. It is made up of a lot of computers hooked together by telephone wires and other types of wires.
