The term is quite over used in my opinion, it is very often used in hyperbole. Whether it is in terms of popularity and driving traffic to a website or a threat said to break the Internet, it doesn’t seem to live up to the meaning of the term.

      Of course it is. Imagine having to climb over 300 meters to plug in an ethernet cable into the internet. Who would want that?

      Ethernet only works up to 100m anyways.
