Reminder: the Internet has its roots from ARPANET which is designed to survive an atomic blast and openly available to learn. A dead web business model won’t kill the technology that allows humans to instantly communicate. If anything a new internet may come of this once the money dries up.
Yep there is nothing stopping new web sites coming online. It’s just hard to find them. Guess what was also hard in the early Internet days? Finding them. Web rings may make a big comeback.
I have a few books that came free with PC mags back in the day, full of links to mad crazy websites and interesting/useful stuff. So few pixels back then!!
You’re mixing ISP fees with Ad/monetized content revenue (the “web business model”). One is a shortcut to not having build your own infrastructure and the other is for people we don’t really need for the internet to function.
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?

Ah yes when the money that we give monthly to connect dries up. Yes that money will certainly dry up sometime

Let me know when it hits you what we actually need for the Internet to function
Let me know when you understand how the internet works.
It is a series of tubes. At no point does the webshop business model make the internet itself work. Happy to be of assistance

I don’t know where the confusion is. Maybe a typo? I don’t know.
