When a Squirrel Broke the Internet
One winter morning in Brooklyn, the internet stopped working. A technician traced the problem from the living room through cables to the backyard, where he looked up and spotted the culprit: a squirrel, scampering along a wire toward a gray box on a telephone pole. This tiny creature had managed to sever the connection to what we call "the cloud"-that supposedly ethereal, everywhere-and-nowhere network we rely on every day. But here's what that moment revealed: the internet isn't floating in some digital ether. It's made of actual stuff-wires, boxes, buildings-and it exists in very specific places. This simple breakdown sparked a two-year journey across continents to answer a deceptively simple question: What is the internet, physically? The answer turns out to be far stranger and more fascinating than most of us imagine.
