The Internet is a global system of interconnected computer networks[->0] that use the standard Internet protocol suite[->1] (TCP/IP) to serve several billion users worldwide. It is a network of networks that consists of millions of private, public, academic, business, and government networks, of local to global scope, that are linked by a broad array of electronic, wireless and optical networking technologies. The Internet carries an extensive range of information resources and services, such as the inter-linked hypertext[->2] documents of the World Wide Web[->3] (WWW), the infrastructure[->4] to support email, and peer-to-peer[->5] networks.

Though the Internet has been widely used by academia[->21] since the 1980s[->22], the commercialization[->23] of what was by the 1990s an international network resulted in its popularization and incorporation into virtually every aspect of modern human life. As of June 2012, more than 2.4 billion people—over a third of the world's human population[->24]—have used the services of the Internet; approximately 100 times more people than were using it in 1995.[1]HYPERLINK \l "cite_note-stats-2"[2]
The Internet has no centralized governance in either technological implementation or policies for access and usage; each constituent network sets its own policies. Only the overreaching definitions of the two principal name spaces[->25] in the Internet, the Internet Protocol address[->26] space and the Domain Name System[->27], are directed by a maintainer organization, the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers[->28] (ICANN). The technical underpinning and standardization of the core protocols (IPv4[->29] and IPv6[->30]) is an activity of the Internet Engineering Task Force[->31] (IETF), a non-profit organization of loosely affiliated international participants that anyone may associate with by contributing technical expertise.
