btw, in the history of mankind there have been many attempts to create good internets. All of them failed. These are just some of the stories I've heard:

There once was an internet from Kent
which initially seemed really god sent
Till they found out
'tis not worth a pound
as its location was a small tent

There once was the mighty Big Ben
which hosted the internet back then.
When they found out
that it had run out
They ditched it in a really dark den.
