The Internet

How the internet works

The internet is a tangible physical system made to move information from place to place. Information is made of bits. We physically send bits by electricity, light, and radio waves.  Bandwidth is measured by the bitrate which is the number of bits per second transported. The internet is a network of networks and links billion of devices together. The internet adapted and absorbed new communication technologies. The data travels on the internet in a much less direct fashion. Many kinds of digital information can be sent with ip packets. The computer connects with the server to get the information. The internet is an open system but still exchange in private information. People can easily hack any information or code by guessing the letters.
