internet is not a public infrastructure and you can tell because you need to pay to access it.

imagine thinking privately owned things are a public good because you are so entrenched into capitalist ideals that you don't even know what a public good is.

Internet is public domain my friend, the government ultimately decides what is on it. A toll road may charge a fee, but I can’t drive a monster truck on one

I disagree as the resulting financial penalties essentially bar some people + those without citizenship from proper access, but you appear to look like a fire giant irl so I won't object too strongly.

I mean, policy decide what's everywhere.
Policy decide how tall your house can be, how thick your walls must be, how insulated it is, etc and your house is still very much a private property.


anyway, this doesn't even need a debate, you can easily find this information on the web and before you say anything, because the information is readily available publicly doesn't mean it is public domain.

the internet is pretty much privately owned.
