The Internet is BGP, IP, and the like. Systems that run on the Internet come and go: the open web, the siloed web, social media, private overlay networks, etc.

The Internet is BGP, IP, and the like.
Systems that run on the Internet come and go: the open web, the siloed web, social media, private overlay networks, etc. All of those still exist but there's definitely been a progression of the ages in which these things have been dominant and then faded into the background. I'm sure this will keep happening.
I don't think the Internet is going anywhere.
