There was another thread about "a small internet world", and this morning a question popped in my head. How big is the internet? (Obviously not in distance or anything, I mean in size)

The amount of people is unidentifiable, but according to the world internet there are around 1,407,724,920 people that use the internet or even more.


Well, for my estimate (not from internet) around 1500000-2000000 people use the internet since technology have been increased and probably cheaper (probably internet too) that people would afford. Also, workers and schools have a lot, so yeah.

And you know this how?

The internet itself is really nothing, you can't pick it up or move it, the internet has no comparable size so weird question to ask how big it is XD

Other estimates put the file size of the World Wide Web as an entire internet at almost a Yottabyte (Which is 1024 Zettabytes, which is 1024 Exabytes mentioned in the above example). To put this in a more simpiler term; it would take nearly 11 trillion years for you to download a Yottabyte using the fastest residential internet connection known today.


evidentaly it is quite large, but there would be a limit, because once it get unimaginably huge (eg,1 million 'yottabytes' there would be not much space to putn this on Earth, in all hard drives we couldnt fit them on the Earth
