Definitions and quotes

Internet
The Internet is the global system of interconnected computer networks that use the Internet protocol suite (TCP/IP) to link devices worldwide. It is a network of networks that consists of private, public, academic, business, and government networks of local to global scope, linked by a broad array of electronic, wireless, and optical networking technologies. The Internet carries a vast range of information resources and services, such as the inter-linked hypertext documents and applications of the World Wide Web (WWW), electronic mail, telephony, and file sharing.

LO
First message transmitted via internet technology (29 October 1969), the first two letters of "LOGIN", after which one system crashed, before the "G" could be sent, as reported in "Internet Began 35 Years Ago at UCLA with First Message Ever Sent Between Two Computers" (2 September 2004).
Internet
You should view Internet arguments as a really crummy fighting game: only the utter idiots bother pressing the "block / defend" button. While your enemy cowers in a corner with their arms raised above their face to futilely protect them, real men pull off complex 408-move combos that involve transforming into a fiery phoenix of doom and releasing unrelenting waves of liquid napalm Satan clown death upon them.
Richard "Lowtax" Kyanka, How to Win Any Argument On the Internet (2004)
Internet
There’s a boys’-locker-room feel to the internet, where men feel they can show off for one another. A lot of the harassment is tied to this toxic masculine culture of ‘Look how cool I can be.’
